I Don't Wanna Waste Your Time Lyrics

The song I Don't Wanna Waste Your Time is performed by Over the Rhine in the album named The Trumpet Child in the year 2007 .

I don't wanna waste your time
With music you don't need
Why should I autograph the book
That you won't even read

I got a different scar for every song
And blood left still to bleed
But I don't wanna waste your time
With music you don't need

I don't wanna waste good wine
If you won't stick around
I love to laugh but I'm more than just
Your alcoholic clown

I won't pray this prayer with you
Unless we both kneel down
'Cause I don't wanna waste good wine
If you won't stick around

So, come on lighten up
Let me fill your cup
I'm just trying to imagine a situation
Oh, where we might have a real conversation, oh

But I don't wanna waste the words
That you don't seem to need
When it comes to wanting what's real
There's no such thing as greed

I hope this night puts down deep roots
I hope we plant a seed
'Cause I don't wanna waste your time
With music you don't need, oh
