Lyrics Wasted - Brandi Carlile

Singing do-do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do

If you had eyes like golden crowns
And diamonds in your fingertips
You'd waste it

If shining wisdom passed your lips
And traveled to the ears of God
You'll waste it

And so I hate you're overrated
Most revered and celebrated
Because you'll waste it, yeah

Then again, it's good to get a call
Now and then just to say hello
Have I said, "I hate to see you go?"
I hate to see you go

But every time you close a door
And nothing opens in its place
You've wasted

And when you speak the words you know
To those who know the words themselves
You're wasted

Such a classic waste of cool
So afraid to break the rules
In all the wrong places

But then again, it's good to get a call
Now and then just to say hello
Have I said how I hate to see you go?
I hate to see you go

Then again, it's good to get a call
Now and then just to say hello
Have I said, "I hate to see you go?"
I hate to see you go

Singing do-do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do
Singing do-do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do
