How many summers still remain?
How many days are lost in vain?
Who's counting out these last remaining years?
How many minutes do we have here?

Wasted days
Wasted days
We watch our lives just fade away too
More wasted days

How much sorrow is there left too climb?
How many promises are worth the time?
And who on earth is worth our time?
Is there a heart here that I can call mine?

Wasted days
Wasted days
We watch our lives just fade away too
More wasted days

How can a man watch his life go down the drain?
How many moments has he lost today?
And who among us could ever see clear?
The end is coming, it's almost here

Wasted days
Wasted days
We watch our lives just fade away too
More wasted days

Wasted days
Wasted days
We watch our lives just fade away too
More wasted days

Wasted days
More wasted days
We watch our lives just slip away too
More wasted days
