Waste Your Time
Conor Maynard Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Working full-time at a job you hate
Tryna pay your bills but you're always late
Had a couple dreams back when you was a teen
But responsibilities meant it had to wait
You got a bunch of friends but you feel alone
They try and get you out but you stay at home
They wanna hit the club but you wanna fall in love
With somebody you can trust 'cause there's been

Too many times that your heart has been let down
And you're picking up pieces from the ground
And you feel like screaming out
But there's no one to help you
Too many times you been told that they can change
But they don't, yeah, they always stay the same
And leave you in the pouring rain
I'm right here to tell you, I won't

I'll love you in all of the ways that they don't
And help you pick up all the pieces they broke
I promise I'll always be with you 'cause
You don't wanna waste your time
I swear you'll never waste your time with me

When's the last time you been outta state?
When's the last time that you got away?
You're better than that, you been breaking your back
You deserve to relax 'cause there's been

Too many times that your heart has been let down
And you're picking up pieces from the ground
And you feel like screaming out
But there's no one to help you
Too many times you been told that they can change
But they don't, yeah, they always stay the same
And leave you in the pouring rain
I'm right here to tell you, I won't

I'll love you in all of the ways that they don't
And help you pick up all the pieces they broke
I promise I'll always be with you 'cause
You don't wanna waste your time
I swear you'll never waste your time with me

And I'll always let you know
That I'll never let you go
I swear that you're beautiful
You ain't gotta try when you're with me
And they might've left you broke
And made you feel all alone
But I wanna let you know
I'm right here to show you, I won't

I'll love you in all of the ways that they don't
And help you pick up all the pieces they broke
I promise I'll always be with you 'cause
You don't wanna waste your time
I swear you'll never waste your time with me
I'll love you in all of the ways that they don't
And help you pick up all the pieces they broke
I promise I'll always be with you 'cause




You don't wanna waste your time
I swear you'll never waste your time with me
