Meat Loaf - A Kiss Is A Terrible Thing To Waste Lyrics

If you listen to the night you can hear the darkness call
I can barely stand to wait. I can barely stand at all
C'mon closer to me now. Its like we're sharing the same
skin
We gotta get outta this jail. We gotta let the future in
So many things in your life that your bound to regret
Why didn't I do that? Why didn't I do this?
So many chances you lost that'll you'll never forget
Why didn't I make it? Why didn't I take it right there?
The loneliest words you'll ever know.
"If only, if only it was so"
The emptiest words that they'll ever be.
"It could have been me. It could have been me"
You'll have to pay for it later.
If you don't get it when its going for free
Believe me! Believe me!
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste.
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
Its something that's always been so
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste

And one of these nights your gonna show me that you already
know
There's a feast waiting for you and you've never even
gotten a taste
Its later than you think and a kiss is a terrible thing to
waste
You shouldn't tremble when we touch there's no reason for
these fears
Its a promise that was made.
We've been promised this for years I wanna show you it all
What to do where and how!
Cause we'll never be as young as we are right now.
WE'LL NEVER BE AS YOUNG AS WE ARE RIGHT NOW!
The loneliest words you'll ever know:
"If only if only it was so"
The emptiest words that they'll ever be:
"It could have been me. It could have been me"
You'll have to pay for it later if you don't get it when
its going for free
Believe me! Believe me!
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste.
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste.
Its something that's always been so.
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste.
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste.

And one of these nights Im gonna show you that you already
know.
There's a feast waiting for you and you've never even
gotten a taste
Its later than you think and a kiss is a terrible thing to
waste!
Tire tracks and broken hearts that's all we're leaving
behind!
It doesn't matter what we're losing
Only matters what we're gonna find!
Tire tracks and broken hearts that's all we're leaving
behind!
It doesn't matter what we're losing
Only matters what we're gonna find!
Tire tracks and broken hearts that's all we're leaving
behind!
It doesn't matter what we're losing
Only matters what we're gonna find!
Tire tracks and broken hearts that's all we're leaving
behind!
It doesn't matter what we're losing
Only matters what we're gonna find!
There's a feast waiting for you and you've never even
gotten a taste.
Its later than you think and a kiss is a terrible thing to
waste.
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
