Wastin' Tears
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Give me one reason to stay (reason to stay)
After you did me this way
(Tell me) Tell me that you're gonna change
Stop playing these games
Never be the same.
Say that you're gonna do me better (gonna do me better)
And that you'll get in together
(Boy say), boy say that you'll treat me right
Come home every night
Stop telling you lies.
[PRÉ-CHORUS]
Baby you know that I love you,
I want this to work,
But lately I feel like you don't put me first,
You don't even try,
Like I'm wasting my time
But if you want me to stay,
Baby you gotta change.
[CHORUS]
I'm tired of wasting my tears (on you)
Baby you gotta change
I'm tired of wasting my tears (on you)
Baby you gotta change
So tired of wasting my tears (on you)
Baby you gotta change
I'm tired of wasting my tears (on you)
Please say that things gonna be different (things gonna be different)
You gonna stop hide just for leaving
(Boy say) Say that you're gonna change your way
Say that all of that days
Will never be the same
Please say that you don't deserve it (you don't deserve it)
And that you're gonna make it worth it
(Just say) Just say you won't apologize
For making me cry
You know it ain't right.
[PRÉ-CHORUS]
Baby you know that I love you,
I want this to work,
But lately I feel like you don't put me first,
You don't even try,
Like I'm wasting my time
But if you want me to stay,
Baby you gotta change.
[CHORUS]
I'm tired of wasting my tears (on you)
Baby you gotta change
I'm tired of wasting my tears (on you)
Baby you gotta change
So tired of wasting my tears (on you)
Baby you gotta change
I'm tired of wasting my tears (on you)
[PRÉ-CHORUS]
Baby you know that I love you,
I want this to work,
But lately I feel like you don't put me first,
You don't even try,
Like I'm wasting my time
But if you want me to stay,
Baby you gotta change.
[CHORUS]
I'm tired of wasting my tears (on you)
Baby you gotta change
I'm tired of wasting my tears (on you)
Baby you gotta change
So tired of wasting my tears (on you)
Baby you gotta change
I'm tired of wasting my tears (on you)
