Wasting Time on What Could Be

Lyrics

[Verse] She put her heart in the wrong hands Running circles in the same sand Hoped he'd turn into her dream man Lost in a fantasy land [Verse 2] Friends whispered he's no good But she swore they misunderstood Saw what she wanted to see Ignoring what could never be [Chorus] Time kept slipping like water in her hands She kept believing in impossible plans Love making her blind to the truth Chasing shadows of a wasted youth [Verse 3] Every conversation felt rehearsed Fighting feelings that felt cursed Wishing for a miracle change But nothing ever seemed to rearrange [Bridge] Holding on to fading light Hoping he'd prove them wrong tonight Dreams turning into silent tears Mind wrapped in desperate fears [Verse 4] Woke up one day to an empty space Love only exists in that wistful place No more lies to hold her tight She finally saw the truth in the light
