You know me well
I can't sit still
I was raisin' Cain

Now I'm raising babies

Time might pass me by

If I close my eyes
So I'm on the next plane leavin' town
I'll be gone tonight and


You ask why I do it that way


It's just the fear of wasted time
The fear of wasted time
That's why


I hold my babies tight
Sneak into their beds at night

I'll just stay and watch them breathing
Next thing I know the alarm clock's ringing


I watch every frame
Of this life I've made
Take a picture but I miss the moment now

Looking in their eyes

And you ask why I do it that way


It's just the fear of wasted time
The fear of wasted time

That's why

The feeling's very strange

I'm waiting for the pain
And happiness can terrify me now
It could be goodbye


And you ask why I'm that way


It's just the fear of wasted time
The fear of wasted time
That's why, that's why, that's why


That's why
