Brandi Carlile - Wasted

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'd 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 ever 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
You're 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

But 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
