Wasted Love
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.
How could you do this to me?
How could you do this to me?
I put my trust in you
That's what you're supposed to do
How could you tell all those lies
While you're looking dead straight in my eyes?
You're someone I thought I knew
She must have thought so too
Before I say goodbye...
Just tell me why did I give just a little but more
And take just a little bit less
And try just a little bit harder
When it's all just wasted love
Why did you kiss me that way?
Why did you stay?
Now it's all just wasted love
Looking back now it's all making sense
When you said she was only a friend
Friends who were making love
Was it worth breaking up?
All the answers I don't want to know
I'll keep asking for, after I go
The flowers they came too late
You've turned the love to hate (ohh)
It's your turn now to cry
Just tell me why did I give just a little but more
And take just a little bit less
And try just a little bit harder
When it's all just wasted love
Why did you kiss me that way?
Why did you stay?
Now it's all just wasted love
We can try and lie, but we both know
Too many things have changed
The memory of her in your arms
Is driving me insane
The shattered dream just breaks my heart
I can't go on this way
I will never look at you the same
You wear a different face
Just tell me why did I give just a little but more
And take just a little bit less
And try just a little bit harder
When it's all just wasted love
Why did you kiss me that way?
Why did you stay?
Now it's all just wasted love
