Let's play it back
When we were young and free
You looked into my eyes and you told me
I don't know if I can stay awake through the night
But I know I'll dream about you on my way back home

All the wasted nights
You know I'm gonna miss those days
When we waste our nights away (waste our nights away)
Gotta get this right (get this right)
Just a couple of castaways
And a wasted night

It's late at night, the TV's on
I see you, wild and free on the big, bright screen
Well, I got caught
Got caught up in between
A faded memory that I still keep in my head

All the wasted nights
You know I'm gonna miss those days
When we waste our nights away (waste our nights away)
Gotta get this right (get this right)
Just a couple of castaways
And a wasted night (waste our nights away)

I think we met around the first of May
I know I miss it like a slow, warm day
I wanna know what it felt like in that photograph
It's been a while since I had the chance
I'll play it back for another dance
I wanna know what it felt like in that photograph

All the wasted nights (wasted nights)
You know I'm gonna miss those days (I miss those days)
When we waste our nights away (waste our nights away)
Gotta get this right (get this right)
Just a couple of castaways
And a wasted night (waste our nights away)
