Wasted

(Troy Verges/Marv Green/Hillary Lindsey)

Standing at the back door she tried to make it fast
One tear hit the hardwood, it fell like broken glass
She said sometimes love slips away
And you just can’t get it back lets face it
For one split second she almost turned around
But that would be like pouring raindrops back into a cloud
So she took another step and said
I see the way out and i’m gonna take it

I don’t wanna spend my life jaded, waiting
To wake up one day and find
That i let all of these years go by wasted

Another glass of whiskey, but it still don’t kill the pain
He stumbles to the sink and pours it down the drain
He said it’s time to be a man and stop living for yesterday
Gotta face it

Chorus:
i don’t wanna spend my life jaded, waiting
To wake up one day and find
That i let all of these years go by wasted
I don’t wanna keep on wishing, missing
The still of the morning, the color of the night
I ain’t spending no more time wasted

She kept driving along ‘til the moon and the sun
Were floating side by side
He looked in the mirror and his eyes were clear
For the first time in a while

(Repeat chorus)

"To wake up one day and find
That i let all of these years go by wasted
I don’t wanna keep on wishing, missing
The still of the morning, the color of the night
I ain’t spending no more time wasted"

Ain't this the fear we all have? Somewhere deep within our hearts, there's this cabinet we stored all those we fear and locked it tight so we can forget we fear them. but occasionally this beast escaped and haunt us...
There were days i woke up and was not sure of what to do and why am i doing this. I'm still not sure at times but one anchor i have, i always turn to. i know if i follow Christ, every step of the way, i won't be too far away from that shining star destiny.
i have an anchor. what do you have? if u think u have my anchor, do u really follow every step? many profess but not many walk the talk. don't be deceived by yourself.
at the end of life, when u meet the Ultimate, what dare you bring to the table between going to heaven or hell? "only those who do my Father's will"
how many times you obey? that will be a determining factor whether you make it or not....
