Jonathan Richman
Don’t Let Our Youth Go to Waste
[Verse 1]
I need to walk by the flowers with someone who could share my face
Looks like nobody could take your place
And I could bleed in sympathy with you
On those days
And I could drink up everything you have
[Chorus]
Don't let it go to waste
[Verse 2]
I could show you memories to rival Berlin in the thirties
I understand your dating-bar ways
And I could bleed in sympathy with you
On those days
And I could drink up everything you have
[Chorus]
Don't let it go to waste
[Verse 3]
Say something warm, say something nice
I can't stand to see you when you're cold
Nor can I stand being out of your life
And I could bleed in sympathy with you
On those days
And I could drink up everything you have
[Chorus]
Don't let our youth go to waste
