"I Don't Wanna Waste Your Time" lyrics

"I Don't Wanna Waste Your Time"

I don't wanna waste your time
With music you don't need
Why should I autograph the book
That you won't even read
I've got a different scar for every song
And blood left still to bleed
But I don't wanna waste your time
With music you don't need

I don't wanna waste good wine
If you won't stick around
I love to laugh but I'm more than just
Your alcoholic clown
I won't pray this prayer with you
Unless we both kneel down
I don't wanna waste good wine
If you won't stick around

Come on lighten up
Let me fill your cup
I'm just trying to imagine a situation
Where we might have a real conversation

But I don't wanna waste the words
That you don't seem to need
When it comes to wanting what's real
There's no such thing as greed
I hope this night puts down deep roots
I hope we plant a seed
'Cause I don't wanna waste your time
With music you don't need
