Lyrics
Standing at the back door
She tried to make it fast
One tear hit the hardwood
It fell like broken glass
She said, "Sometimes love slips away, and you just can't get it back
Let's face it."
For one split second, she almost turned around
But that would be like pouring raindrops back into a cloud
So she took another step, and said, "I see the way out, and I'm gonna take it."
I don't want to spend my life jaded, waiting
To wake up one day and find
That I've let all these years go by
Wasted
Another glass of whiskey, but it still don't kill the pain
So he stumbles to the sink, and pours it down the drain
He said, "It's time to be a man, and stop living for yesterday,
I've got to face it."
'Cause I don't want to spend my life jaded, waiting
To wake up one day and find
That I've let all these years go by
Wasted
Oh, I don't want to keep on wishing, missing
The still of the morning, the color of the night
I ain't spending no more time
Wasted
She kept driving along, 'til the moon and the sun were floating side by side
And he looked in the mirror, and his eyes were clear for the first time in a while, yeah
I don't want to spend my life jaded, waiting to wake up one day and find
That I've let all these years go by
Wasted
I don't want to keep on wishing, missing
The still of the morning, the color of the night
I ain't spending no more time wasted
