I didn't want to love
I was happy on my own
Wish I never had a taste
Of your sweet song

I was rolling like a stone
Taking any road
There was something in the way
You stopped me cold

All the pretty words you said
Slipped through my fingers just like sand
Ever since that sorry day
You took my hand

Wasted love
Wasted love
Wasted all my time
And all my love on you
When times were rough
You used me up
Wasted love on you

Did you ever really see?
Was it ever really me?
Why did you keep me in a cage?
You should've set me free
Because every single time you lied
Felt like a splinter in my pride
And if you had a heart now
I know it wasn't mine

Wasted love
Wasted love
Wasted all my time
And love on you
When times were rough
You used me up
Wasted love on you

All along I knew something was not right
But I was hoping I could change your mind
All along no matter how I tried and tried
You kept taking, taking
Taking every breath I had inside

Wasted love
Wasted love
Wasted all my time
And all my love on you

When times were rough
You used me up
Wasted love
Wasted love
Wasted love
Wasted all my time
And all my love on you

When times were rough
You used me up
Wasted love on you
I wasted all my love on you
Wasted all my love on you
