An Awful Thing to Waste

You say that you could do with a break

Above all you can take

You need to find somewhere you can run toSomewhere a long way from here

Somewhere where the skies are all clear

Somewhere you can think all your thoughts throughIt took a long time to make me understand

You gotta meet life and shake it by the hand

You gotta use your emotionYou talk a nice line to put your mind at ease

You wanna sit back and count your memories

But that's no solutionI don't want to harp about it

But what you gonna do about it?Look at how you're set in your ways

You used to be so willing to face

Any kind of problem before youLife is not as long as you think

Open up your mind and you'll see

Don't destroy yourself, I implore you, I implore youYou've got a fine wife, a perfect family

You had it all planned to live so carefully

But where does it get youThey say the mind is an awful thing to waste

And that's a fact that you must come to face

What more can I tell you?I don't want to harp about it

But what you gonna do about it?You have everything that you need

You only have to try to succeed

And realize it's all waiting for youLiving life this way is the worst

If you've to suffer you must

And don't you know we want to applaud you

Yes applaud you

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
