How do you know if you've done everything right?
Is it the love you have at hand
Or the cash you kiss at night?
How do you know if it was worth it in the end?
Did every second really count?
Or were there some you should've spent
On anything but anyone you love?
Was this the life that you were dreaming of?
A movie night, a yellow light
You're slowin' down and days are adding up

So don't waste the time you have
Waiting for time to pass
It's only a lifetime, that’s only a while
It's not worth the anger you felt as a child
Don't waste the time you have
Waiting for time to pass
It's only a lifetime, that's not long enough
You're not gonna like it without any love so don't waste it

I'm unimpressed by the people preachin' pain
For the sake of some small game
In the sake of someone's name
I'm unprepared for my loved ones to be gone
I call 'em way too often now
Worry way too much about Mom

Don't waste the time you have
Waiting for time to pass
It's only a lifetime, that’s only a while
It's not worth the anger you felt as a child
Don't waste the time you have
Waiting for time to pass
It's only a lifetime, that's not long enough
You're not gonna like it without any love so don't waste it

It's family and friends and that's the truth
The fountain doesn't give you back your youth
You're stayin' up too late at night and laughin' under kitchen lights
So hard, you start to cry


Don't waste the time you have
Waiting for time to pass
It's only a lifetime, that's not long enough
You're not gonna like it without any love so don't waste it
