Waste Away

[(oohs)]
my own re-runs don't you know I've read and seen this play
when i was a young girl late at night
i met the sunflower wish
i still see her laying there
it haunts me in my dreams
why you did say in joining her?
in her misery?

i don't want to watch you waste away
i don't want to watch you waste away

I've seen you fall and forget it all
you don't want to watch me do the same

what happens that makes you want to go face first into the ground?
what happened to me that i keep following you around?

now its time to forget our love and let you fade away
it may hurt
I'm okay
she can watch you waste away

i don't want to watch you waste away
i don't want to watch you waste away

I've seen you fall and forget it all
you don't want to watch me do the same

[(aah's) and (ooh's)]

i know i have fueled the fire
man we had a ball
sunburst skin, bad boy grin holding hands in a Montreal
why do i spend so much time biting my own teeth?
keep tearing yourself apart
you'll be the sunflower king

i don't want to watch you waste away
i don't want to watch you waste away

I've seen you fall and forget it all
you don't want to watch me do the same
you don't want to watch me do the same
you don't want to watch me do the same
you don't want to watch me do the same
