You say love is messed up
You say that it don't work
You don't wanna try, no, no
(You don't wanna try, no, no)
And baby, I'm no stranger
To heartbreak and the pain, of
Always being let go (Always being let go)

And I know there's no making this right, this right
And I know there's no changing your mind, your mind (Your mind)
But we both found each other tonight, tonight
So if love is nothing more
Than just a waste of your time

Waste it on me
Waste it on me
(Waste it on me)
Tell me why not waste it on me
Waste it on me
(Waste it on me)
Baby why not waste it on me
Waste it on me
(Waste it on me)
Tell me why not waste it on me
Waste it on me
(Waste it on me)

So we don't gotta go there
Past lovers and warfare
It's just you and me now (Yeah, yeah)
I don't know your secrets
But I'll pick up the pieces
Pull you close to me now (Yeah, yeah)

And I know there's no making this right, this right (Yeah)
And I know there's no changing your mind, your mind (Oh)
But we both found each other tonight, tonight (Oh, yeah)
So if love is nothing more
Than just a waste of your time

Waste it on me
Waste it on me
(Waste it on me)
Tell me why not waste it on me
Waste it on me
(Waste it on me)
Baby why not waste it on me
Waste it on me
(Waste it on me)
Tell me why not waste it on me
Waste it on me
(Waste it on me) Tell me why not
Yay, waste it on me

Don't you think there must be a reason
Yeah, like we had our names
Don't you think we got another season
That come after spring
I wanna be your summer
I wanna be your wave
Treat me like a comma
And I'll take you to a new phrase
Ya, come just eat me and throw me away
If I'm not your taste, babe, waste
Waste it on me

And I know there's no making this right, this right (Yeah)
And I know there's no changing your mind, your mind (Oh)
But we both found each other tonight, tonight (Oh, yeah)
So if love is nothing more
Than just a waste of your time

Waste it on me
Waste it on me
(Waste it on me)
Tell me why not waste it on me
Waste it on me
(Waste it on me)
Baby why not waste it on me
Waste it on me
(Waste it on me)
Tell me why not waste it on me
Waste it on me
(Waste it on me) Tell me why not
