Wasted Time

[Verse 1]

The rain is coming down tonight

I'm smiling looking at this photograph

I hear that song and I'm flying right back to when we had it made

Every Friday night when the sun went down

We'd be running them streets like we owned the town

[Pre-Chorus]

And I just can't let it go, no, I just can't let it go

I wonder if you ever think about it like I do

Seven kids on a two lane road

Had The Guns on the radio

After all this time it still feels so good

[Chorus 1]

When I think about those summer nights

Singin' out the window, on the back roads, "Sweet Child of Mine"

Sippin' on the Loko's, spark a light

Ain't it funny how the best days of my life

Was all that wasted time?

All that wasted time

[Verse 2]

Out of nowhere, it slipped away

And the rope by the river hangs silently

And the town that I knew ain't nothing like it used to be, ah

I can't explain

They took all the color from the picture frame

And the days got sold to the grit and the game

[Pre-Chorus]

But I just can't let it go, no, I just can't let it go

I wonder if you ever think about it like I do

Seven kids on my two lane road

We had The Guns on the radio

After all this time it still feels so good

[Chorus 2]

When I think about those summer nights

Singin' out the window, on the back roads, "Sweet Child of Mine"

Sippin' on the Loko's, spark a light, yeah

Ain't it funny how the best days of my life

Was all that wasted time?

All that wasted time

Swinging out on the line

Living all that wasted time

[Post-Chorus]

Hey, hey, now, woo

Ah yeah

[Bridge]

Summer dresses dryin' out on the hood of the car

Only music that we had was out the left speaker

We were living every second 'til the time ran out

We had nothing but we had it all

[Chorus 3]

When I think about those summer nights

Sneaking out the window, running back roads, your hand in mine

We were going nowhere, we were so alive, uh-huh

Ain't it crazy how the best days of my life

Was all that wasted time?

All that wasted time

We were swinging out on the line

Living all that wasted time

[Outro]

Hey, you know, oh

Don't you feel it coming on back now?

Yeah, yeah
