A Kiss Is A Terrible Thing To Waste - Meat Loaf, Andrew Lloyd Webber

If you listen to the night

You can hear the darkness call

I can barely stand to wait

I can barely stand at all

C’mon closer to me now

It’s like we’re sharing the same skin

We gotta get out of this jail

We gotta let the future in

So many things in your life

That you’re bound to regret

«Why didn’t I do that?»

«Why didn’t I do this?»

So many chances you lost

That you’ll never forget

«Why didn’t I make it?»

«Why didn’t I take it right there?»

The loneliest words you’ll ever know

«If only-if only it was so»

The emptiest words that they’ll ever be

«It could’ve been me!»

«It could’ve been me!»

The loneliest words you’ll ever know

«If only-if only it was so»

The emptiest words that they’ll ever be

«It could’ve been me!»

«It could’ve been me!»

You’ll have to pay for it later

If you don’t get it when it’s going for free

Believe me -!

Believe me -!

A kiss is a terrible thing to waste

A kiss is a terrible thing to waste

It’s something that’s always been so

A kiss is a terrible thing to waste

A kiss is a terrible thing to waste

And one of these nights

You’re gonna show me that you already know

There’s a feast waiting for you

And you’ve never even gotten a taste

It’s later than you think and

A kiss is a terrible thing to waste

You shouldn’t tremble when we touch

There’s no reason for these fears

It’s a promise that was made

We’ve been promised this for years

I wanna show you it all

What to do and where and how

Because we’ll never be as young as we are right now

We’ll never be as young as we are right now

So many cries in the night

That you try to ignore

«Why didn’t I do this?»

«Why didn’t I do that?»

So many unanswered prayers

So many unopened doors

«Why didn’t I take it?»

«Why didn’t I make it come true?»

The loneliest words you’ll ever know

«If only-if only it was so»

The emptiest words that they’ll ever be

«It could’ve been me!»

«It could’ve been me!»

The loneliest words you’ll ever know

«If only-if only it was so»

The emptiest words that they’ll ever be

«It could’ve been me!»

«It could’ve been me!»

You’ll have to pay for it later

If you don’t get it when it’s going for free

Believe me

Believe me, believe me

A kiss is a terrible thing to waste

A kiss is a terrible thing to waste

It’s something that’s always been so

A kiss is a terrible thing to waste

A kiss is a terrible thing to waste

And one of these nights

I’m gonna show you that you already know

There’s a feast waiting for you

And you’ve never even gotten a taste

It’s later than you think and

A kiss is a terrible thing to waste

There’s a feast waiting for you

And you’ve never even gotten a taste

It’s later than you think and

A kiss is a terrible thing to waste

Tire tracks and broken hearts

It’s all we’re leaving behind

It doesn’t matter what we’re losing

It’s only matters what we’re going to find

Tire tracks and broken hearts

It’s all we’re leaving behind

It doesn’t matter what we’re losing

It’s only matters what we’re going to find

Tire tracks and broken hearts

It’s all we’re leaving behind

(Let's get away from the past)

It doesn’t matter what we’re losing

Only matters what we’re going to find

(So many ways it could pass)

Tire tracks and broken hearts

It’s all we’re leaving behind

It doesn’t matter what we’re losing

Only matters what we’re going to find

Tire tracks and broken hearts

It’s all we’re leaving behind

It doesn’t matter what we’re losing

Only matters what we’re going to find

There’s a feast waiting for you

And you’ve never even gotten a taste

It’s later than you think and

A kiss is a terrible thing to waste

(A kiss is a terrible thing to waste)

A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
