A Kiss Is A Terrible Thing To Waste

If you listen, to the night
You can hear the darkness call
I can barely stand to wait
I can barely stand at all
Cmon closer to me now
Its like were sharing the same skin
We gotta get out of this jail
We gotta let the future in
So many things in your life
That your bound to regret
Why didnt I do that
Why didnt I do this
So many chances you lost
That youll never forget
Why didnt I make it
Why didnt I take it right there
The loneliest words youll ever know
If only-if only it was so
The emptiest words that therell ever be
It could have been me. it could have been me
The loneliest words youll ever know
If only-if only it was so
The emptiest words that therell ever be
It could have been me. it could have been me
Youll have to pay for it later
If you dont get it when its going for free
Believe me -! believe me!

A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
Its something thats always been so
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste.

And one of these nights
Youre gonna show me that you already know
Theres a feast waiting for you
And youve never even gotten a taste
Its later than you think and
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
You shouldnt tremble when we touch
Theres no reason for these fears
Its a promise that was made
Weve been promised this for years
I wanna show you it all
What to do and where and how!
Cause well never be as young as we are right now
Well never be as young as we are right now!

So many cries in the night
That you try to ignore
Why didnt I do this
Why didnt I do that
So many unanswered prayers
So many unopened doors
Why didnt I take it
Why didnt I make it come true
The loneliest words youll ever know
If only - if only it was so
The emptiest words that therell ever be
It could have been me
It could have been me
The loneliest words youll ever- know
If only - if only it was so
The emptiest words that therell ever be
It could have been me
It could have been me
Youll have to pay for it later
If you dont get it when its going for free
Believe me! believe me, believe me!

A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
Its something that has always been so
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste.

And one of these nights
Im gonna show you that you already know
Theres a feast waiting for you
And youve never even gotten a taste
Its later than, you think and
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
Theres a feast waiting for you
And youve never even gotten a taste
Its later than you think and
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste!

Tyre tracks and broken hearts
Thats all were leaving behind
It doesnt matter what were losing
It only matters what were going to find
Tyre tracks and broken hearts
Thats all were leaving behind
It doesnt matter what were losing
It only matters what were going to find
Tyre tracks and broken hearts
Thats all were leaving behind
It doesnt matter what were losing
It only matters what were going to find
Tyre tracks and broken hearts
Thats all were leaving behind
It doesnt matter what were losing
It only matters what were going to find
Theres a feast waiting for you
And youve never even gotten a taste
Its later than you think and
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste.
