Wasted Time
Lyrics of Wasted Time by Vance Joy
Verse
Why, why do you go wasting your time on me?
You′re so beautiful now
There's so much that′s left for you now
Oh yeah, babe
Verse
And why, why do you go flashing those eyes at me?
You know that I'm eager to please
I've always been eager to please
Oh yeah, babe
Pre-chorus
But I′ve, I′ve got a lot to say
And I'm scared that you′re gonna slip away
And you, you've got this wide-eyed gaze
And a smile that you′ll carry through your days
Chorus
Oh, why?
Oh, why?
It's the easiest way
To know you′re alive
Chorus
And the beauty of her
I see her talking with her hands
Well, I don't think she knows
How she changed all my plans
Verse
Why, why do you go wasting your youth on me?
You're so beautiful now
There′s so much time left for you now
Oh yeah, babe
Verse
Why? We look at the faces on your bedroom wall
Nobody′s perfect at all
Sometimes it makes you feel small
Oh yeah, babe
Bridge
Well, I've, I′ve got a lot to say
And I'm scared that you′re gonna slip away
And you, you've got this wide-eyed gaze
And a smile that you′ll carry through your days
Chorus
Oh, why?
Oh, why?
It's the easiest way
To know you're alive
Chorus
And the beauty of her
I see her talking with her hands
Well, I don′t think she knows
How she changed all my plans
Hook
The things that I thought would last
Well, they′re fading, they're fading
The feelings I used to have
They′re changing, they're changing
Hook
The things that I thought would last
Well, they′re fading, they're fading
The feelings I used to have
They′re changing, they're changing, they're changing now
Outro
They′re changing, they′re changing now
Changing, they're changing now
