lyrics

WHAT A WASTE

You light another cigarette
the way you used to do
we were never gonna break
until we broke in two
I'm not gonna hide
not gonna lie about anything
It's not the same
cos people change
and life ain't standing still, you know

You never go, you never go for it
you just wanna keep
just wanna keep me for a little bit

Oh oh
if you want me how come you let me go?
you’re an ocean away
Honey what a waste
Oh oh
if you need me why don’t you tell me so?
too little too late
Honey what a waste

You ask me if I’ve met some one
and what i did last night
well do you really wanna know,
or do you wanna pick a fight?
I’m not gonna hide
not gonna lie about anything
Did you think I’d wait?
Count the days?
Life ain’t standing still, you know
You never go, you never go for it
you just wanna keep
just wanna keep me for a little bit

Oh oh
if you want me how come you let me go?
you’re an ocean away
Honey what a waste
Oh oh
if you need me why don’t you tell me so?
too little too late
Honey what a waste

You’re down in a hole, down in a hole in the ground
you’re letting yourself, letting yourself down
Too many things, too many things in the way
of taking a leap, taking a leap of faith
you’re an ocean away
Honey what a waste

Oh oh
if you want me how come you let me go?
you’re an ocean away
Honey what a waste
Oh oh
if you need me why don’t you tell me so?
too little too late
Honey what a waste
