Chorus:
Why did I waste my kisses on U, baby?
Why did I waste my kisses on U now?
Why did I waste my kisses on U, baby?
Why did I waste my kisses on U now?
Overdue - that's how I described the hour
The minute, the moment that I first laid eyes on U
I guess I knew that sooner or later this power
Would manifest itself into a rendezvous
Small dark room - that's where I let U smother
In front of your
Why should I care?
Cheap perfume all over those burgundy stockings
The ones I tied U up with
I shoulda just left 'em there
Shoulda just left 'em there
Why'd I waste my kisses on U?
Why did I waste my kisses on U, baby?
Chorus
Why'd I waste my kisses on U, baby?
On U
Why did I waste my kisses on U now?
Why'd I waste my kisses on U, baby?
On U
Why did I waste my kisses on U now?
