Third Day › Lyrics › It's a Shame

I hate to be, to be the one
Who's given up and feels that all our hope is gone
But what I thought was a miracle
Just turned into the same old problem that it was

She longs for better days
She's always been afraid

And it's a shame, oh, it's a shame
That you are throwing your whole life away
And it's a shame, oh, it's a shame
I wonder if you're ever gonna change
Oh, it's a shame

Ever since I can recall
She has been so afraid of you losing it all
What do you want? Do you even know
And is it worth the pain we all have to endure?

She longs for better days
She's always been afraid

And it's a shame, oh, it's a shame
That you are throwing your whole life away
And it's a shame, oh, it's a shame
I wonder if you're ever gonna change

You left her without leaving
You hit her without swinging
You took away without giving a thing

Except for pain and sorrow
I'm praying that tomorrow
That you will open up your eyes and see

Well, it's a shame, oh, it's a shame
That you are throwing your whole life away
And it's a shame, oh, it's a shame
I wonder if you're ever gonna change

Oh, it's a shame, oh, it's a shame
Will you ever change? Will you ever change?
