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 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 going to take it

(chorus)
I don't want to spend my life jaded, waiting
To wake up today and find
That I let all these years go by
Wasted

Another glass of whisky
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
Gotta face it

(Chorus)
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

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 drivin along
Until 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

(Chorus X 2)
