Lyrics

Standin' 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 pourin' 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 wanna spend my life jaded
Waitin'
To wake up one day and find
That I 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 livin' for yesterday
Gotta face it..."

Cuz I don't wanna spend my life jaded
Waitin'
To wake up one day and find
That I let all these years go by
Wasted

Oh, I don't wanna keep on wishin'
Missin'
The still of the morning
The color of the night
I ain't spendin' no more time
Wasted

She kept drivin' along
Till the moon and the sun were
Floatin' side-by-side

He looked in the mirror
And his eyes were clear for the first time
In awhile... yeah..

Oh, I don't wanna spend my life jaded
Waitin'
To wake up one day and find
That I let all these years go by
Wasted

Oh, I don't wanna keep on wishin'
Missin'
The still of the morning
The color of the night
I ain't spendin' no more time
Wasted

Oh, I don't wanna spend my life jaded
Waitin'
To wake up one day and find
That I let all these years go by
Wasted

Yeah, yeah

Oh, I don't wanna keep on wishin'
Missin'
The still of the morning
The color of the night
I ain't spendin' no more time
Wasted
