Lyrics

Wasting Love

[Verse 1]

It seems we lost the feeling somewhere along the way

The distance now between us grows farther day by day

We never love each other, we're just passing off the time

Wasting love, yours and mine

[Chorus]

Wasting love, love divine

Wasting love, yours and mine

There's nothing left between us just the ties that bind

Wasting love, yours and mine

Wasting love

[Verse 2]

We just might find happiness with somebody new

For all the love we're wasting surely could be used

Not long ago our love was so true and kind

Now it's been wasted, your love and mine

[Chorus]

Wasting love, love divine

Wasting love, yours and mine

There's nothing left between us just the ties that bind

Wasting love, yours and mine

Wasting love

Wasting love, yours and mine

Wasting love
