Wished My Life Away

Friends and neighbors sit and smile
All the while
I was caught up in a dream
Decades linger in my wine
Watch them shine
As they fly past me

All too much and not enough
Overfills my cup
Needed something I could chase
I wished my life away

Here I sit, a broken man
Head in hands
Running out of time
If I had a second chance
Or a second glance
Could I change my mind?

All too much and not enough
Needed something I could chase
I think back to yesterdays
I wished my life away

Who cares what I have to show?
They don't know me now
Sons and daughters of a life
Full of strife
That I brought down

All too much and not enough
Overfills my cup
I think back to yesterdays
I wished my life away

Friends and neighbors sit and smile
All the while I wished my life away

Friends and neighbors sit and smile
All the while I wished my life away

Friends and neighbors sit and smile
All the while I wished my life away

Friends and neighbors sit and smile
All the while I wished my life away
