[Verse 1]
Off I go, a feather in the fray
That's gone without a trace
Where? I don’t know
But still, I can feel your breeze
Just never sure where it always blows and blows
I'm caught in the drift so soon
Who knows if I'll ever find a way back through?
I don’t know, I'll find a way to you

[Chorus]
Oh, what a waste
Got caught out in the open air
I struggled for days
Don't know if you've seen it
And would you believe
If I turned my back on it all?
Was waiting for the fall
Was waiting for the fall
When I found my way back to you
I'm glad I found my way to you
But, oh, what a waste

[Verse 2]
Is it too late? Is it too late
Coming from you?
Felt you close when I learnt to let go
Now I got nothing for it to show
What's easier to say?
That all the while I was under
You were bold and getting no younger
(Or that we are broken, it's time we learnt)
[Chorus]
Oh, what a waste
Got caught out in the open air
I struggled for days
Don't know if you’ve seen it
And would you believe
If I turned my back on it all?
Was waiting for the fall
Was waiting for the fall
When I found my way back to you
I’m glad I found my way to you
But, oh, what a waste

[Interlude]
Oh, how far we've got to go
So far, my love, I know

[Chorus]
Oh, what a waste (Oh, how far we’ve got to go)
Got caught out in the open air
I struggled for days (So far, my love, I know)
Don't know if you've seen it
And would you believe
If I turned my back on it all? (Oh, how far we've got to go)
Was waiting for the fall
Was waiting for the fall
When I found my way back to you (So far, my love, I know)
I’m glad I found my way to you
But, oh, what a waste
[Outro]
But, oh, what a waste
But, oh, what a waste
But, oh, what a waste
But, oh, what a waste
