Ayla Nereo – Wasted Hours lyrics

This is a song for all the wasted hours
Spent pining after someone
And all the wasted flowers
You wanted just to give them out
And all the wasted words
Trying to prove they were good for you
It's not wasted breath

Cause all those wasted hours
Were trying to show you something more
About those wasted flowers
To see just what you're giving for
And all the wasted words
Were heard and spoken
Simply to be your truth
Simply to be heard and spoken
Simply to be your truth
Simply to be heard and spoken by you

And what is my truth
And what do I want to say
And what is my meaning
And what is my way

Cause it feels so empty sometimes
Feels like I need another to fill this hole inside
And I'm reaching, and searching, and seeking
And I'm wanting, and asking, and needing
And I'm reaching, and searching, and seeking
And I'm wanting, and asking, and needing
Cause it feels so empty sometimes
Feels like I need another to fill this hole inside
And I'm reaching, and searching, and seeking
And I'm wanting, and asking, and needing

And maybe baby you can go down deep
(Where is that hole)
Maybe baby you can go in deeper
(What does it sound like)
Maybe baby you can find what you seek
(Into the darkness)
Maybe baby you will find much more
(Listening to silence)

And I do not want to
Give anything less than love
And I do not want to
Settle for anything less than your whole heart
And I do not want to
Give anything less than love
And I do not want you
To settle for anything less than my whole heart

It's holy
Nothing excluded
Nothing outside
There are no exceptions to what is defined/divine

And it's not wasted hours
Spent being alone just with yourself
And no wasted flowers
Given just for giving out
And no wasted words
Heard and spoken
Simply to be your truth
Simply to be heard and spoken

It's not wasted breath

And it's not wasted hours
Trying to understand why you love someone
And how you want to be loved
Trying to get to know yourself
So you can love yourself that much
