Did I Waste My Youth? Lyrics

Tell me can I have another chance

When love don't work out in a vain romance

Gentle hands that left me in a trance

Melting hearts just from a simple glance

Wish that I could build a time machine

To go and change all of my memories

Trips to Chicago in your thrifted jeans

Talking on phones built in the seventies

Before I knew it I woke up and saw

Images that elevated my withdrawals

I couldn't keep them sitting in my drawer

I burned the dresser, but my years were gone

Did I waste my youth

Giving time to you

If I only knew

What loving you would do

Did I waste my youth

Oh the days they flew

If I only knew

All that you'd undo

Rings sitting in my Pinterest

Right beside your white dress

Now sinking holes in my chest

With lack of sleep, I regress

The last looks that we exchanged

May have rewired my brain

But nothing causes me pain

More than the time I can't gain

Did I waste my youth

Giving time to you

If I only knew

What loving you would do

Did I waste my youth

Oh the days they flew

If I only knew

All that you'd undo
