I Don't Wanna Waste Your Time Lyrics - Over The Rhine

I dont wanna waste your time 

With music you dont need 

Why should I autograph the book 

That you wont even read 

I got a different scar for every song 

And blood left still to bleed 

But I dont wanna waste your time 

With music you dont need 

I dont wanna waste good wine 

If you wont stick around 

I love to laugh but Im more than just 

Your alcoholic clown 

I wont pray this prayer with you 

Unless we both kneel down 

'Cause I dont wanna waste good wine 

If you wont stick around 

So, come on lighten up 

Let me fill your cup 

Im just trying to imagine a situation 

Oh, where we might have a real conversation, oh 

But I dont wanna waste the words 

That you dont seem to need 

When it comes to wanting whats real 

Theres no such thing as greed 

I hope this night puts down deep roots 

I hope we plant a seed 

Cause I dont wanna waste your time 

With music you dont need, oh
