Wasted Time

 

Guitar, and bass intro to percussion (ballad)
 
v1        Too many faces,
            too many memories.
            Back then, I didn't care.
            So many friends,
            and good times gone.
            But back then, we didn't care.
 
ch1       We don't know,
            how much wasted time we have.
            We don't know,
            how much wasted time we have.
            Until it's too late.
 
v2         I never took the time to remember.
            I never took the time to realize,
            all that it meant to me.
            More the fool
            was I. [carry last word]
 
ch2       We don't know,
            how much wasted time we have.
            We don't know,
            how much wasted time we have.
            Until it's too late.

            We don't know
            how much wasted time we have.
            We don't know,
            how much wasted time we have.
            We don't know,
            how much wasted time we have.
            We don't know,
            how much wasted time we have.
 
 
v3        The pain and suffering,
            that we must endure,
            is so much more
            than others could bear.
            Only we don't think that way.
            We live our lives
            in our own despair.
 
ch3       We don't know,
            how much wasted time we have.
            We don't know,
            how much wasted time we have.
 
v4        There will never be perfection,
            we'll never live a life
            of perpetual joy.
            But we have a life,
            and that's enough,
            Yeah, that's enough for me.
 
ch4       We don't know,
            how much wasted time we have.
            We don't know,
            how much wasted time we have.
            Until it's too late.
 
out       You wish something done with,
            you wish time could move faster.
            But you don't know how valuable
            each living moment is.
