Wasted Time

The rain is comin' down tonight

I'm smilin' lookin' at this photograph

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

Every Friday night when the sun went down

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

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, ooh-ooh

Seven kids on a two lane road

Had the guns on the radio

After all this time it still feels so good

When I think about those summer nights

Singin' out the window, on the back roads

Sweet child of mine

Sippin' on the local's spark of light

Uh ain't it funny how the best days of my life

Was all that wasted (time)?

All that wasted time

Out of nowhere, it slipped away

And the rope by the river hangs silently

And the town that I knew ain't nothin' 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 bird in the game

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, ooh-ooh

Seven kids on a two lane road

We had the guns on the radio

After all this time (it still feels so good)

When I think about those summer nights

Singin' out the window, on the back roads

Sweet child of mine

Sippin' on the local's spark of light

Eh, ain't it funny how the best days of my life

Was all that wasted (time)? All that wasted time

Swingin' out on the line

Livin' all that wasted time

Hey, hey, now, whoa oh yeah

Summer dresses layin' out on the hood of the car

Only music that we had was out the left speaker

We were livin' every second until the time ran out

We had nothin' but we had it all

When I think about those summer nights

Sneakin' out the window, runnin' 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 swingin' out on the line

Livin' all that wasted (time)

Hey, you know ooh, ooh (time)

Don't you feel it comin' on back now (time)

(Time)
