  • I'm wasting my time with you
    But I like it, I like it too
    I'm wasting away, it's true

    You did it by phone
    Didn't have the guts to say it to my face
    Guess I never knew you at all
    Now I haven't left my room in a couple of days
    I'm heartbroken (heartbroken)
    And a little bit angry (little bit angry)
    Was it all for nothing?
    All the time I won't get back

    I could have been falling in and out of love
    Kissing strangers in the club
    Learning more about myself
    It's a sad, sad truth
    I could have been young and reckless, far from wise
    Instead of making sacrifices
    Sad but true
    Wasted all my youth on you

    I'm wasting my time with you
    But I like it, I like it too
    I'm wasting away, it's true
    Wasted all my youth on you
    I'm wasting my time with you
    But I like it, I like it too
    I'm wasting away, it's true
    Wasted all my youth

    I could have been falling in and out of love
    Kissing strangers in the club
    Learning more about myself
    It's a sad, sad truth
    I could have been young and reckless, far from wise
    Instead of making sacrifices
    Sad but true
    Wasted all my youth on-

    I'm wasting my time with you
    But I like it, I like it too
    I'm wasting away, it's true
    But I like wasting time with you
    I'm wasting my time with you
    But I like it, I like it too
    I'm wasting away, it's true
    Wasted all my youth-

    All these years I've spent on you
    Got nothing to show, it's sad but true
    I could have been young and reckless, far from wise
    Instead of making sacrifices
    Sad but true
    Wasted all my youth on you Writer/s: Catrina Burns-Temison, Jonny Coffer, Kesi Dryden, Piers Aggett, Simon Aldred
