Meatloaf - A Kiss Is A Terrible Thing To Waste

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. Its like we`re sharing the same skin
We gotta get outta this jail.
We gotta let the future in


So many things in your life that your bound to regret
Why didn`t I do that? Why didn`t I do this?
So many chances you lost that`ll 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 have been me. It could have been me"
You`ll have to pay for it later.
If you don`t get it when its going for free
Believe me! Believe me!


A kiss is a terrible thing to waste.
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
Its something that`s always been so
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
And one of these nights your gonna show me that you already know
There`s a feast waiting for you and you`ve never even gotten a taste
Its 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
Its a promise that was made.
We`ve been promised this for years
I wanna show you it all What to do where and how!
Cause 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 have been me. It could have been me"
You`ll have to pay for it later
if you don`t get it when its going for free
Believe me! Believe me!

Tire tracks and broken hearts that`s all we`re leaving behind!

Only matters what we`re gonna find!
