Standing at the back door
She tried to make it fast
One tear hit the hard wood
It fell like broken glass
She said sometimes love slips away
And you just cant get it back
Lets face it

For one split second
She almost turned around
But that would be like pouring rain drops
Back into a cloud
So she took another step and said
I see the way out and Im gonna take it

I dont wanna spend my life jaded
Waiting to wake up one day and find
That Ive let all these years go by
Wasted

Another glass of whisky but it still dont kill the pain
So he stumbles to the sink and pours it down the drain
He says its time to be a man and stop living for yesterday
Gotta face it.

Cause I dont wanna spend my life jaded
Waiting to wake up one day and find
That Ive let all these years go by
Wasted

Oh I dont wanna keep on wishing missing
The still of the morning the color of the night
I aint spending no more time
Wasted

She kept drivin along
Till the moon and the sun were floating side-by-side
He looked in the mirror and his eyes were clear
For the first time in a while

Hey yeah
Oh I dont wanna spend my life jaded
Waiting to wake up one day and find
That Ive let all these years go by
Wasted

Oh I dont wanna keep on wishing missing
The still of the morning the color of the night
I aint spending no more time
Wasted
