How many years will it take To make my past go away I've heard You say I can change But I feel the same It's so hard to face this, I’ve got to let it go I've made a million mistakes My hearts been broken and used I knew You could heal this heartache, but I was a fool It's so hard to say this, but I know it’s true I know it’s true I'm not wasting time, living in a memory I'm not wasting life, waiting for a chance to breathe We can jump, take a dive, and do this We gotta love and learn how to forgive I'm not wasting time, living in a memory No, I can never forget The day You called out my name I was a slave to regret So You broke the chains Now I’m free to leave my bitterness behind I'll leave it all behind I'm not wasting time, living in a memory I'm not wasting life, waiting for a chance to breathe We can jump, take a dive, and do this We gotta love and learn how to forgive I'm not wasting time, living in a memory I've made a million mistakes My hearts been broken and used But, Your love sets my heart on fire I'm not wasting time, living in a memory I'm not wasting life, waiting for a chance to breathe We can jump, take a dive, and do this We gotta love and learn how to forgive I'm not wasting time, living in a memory I Gotta leave it all behind Living in a memory I'm not iving in a memory
