Its a Shame by Third Day Lyrics

[Intro]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
She longs for better days
She's always been afraid

[Chorus]
And it's a shame, oh it's a shame
That you are throwin' your whole life away
And it's a shame, oh it's a shame
I wonder if you're ever gonna to change
It's a shame

[Verse 1]
Ever since, I can recall
She has been so afraid
Of you losin' it all
What do you want?
Do you even know?
And is it worth the pain?
We all have to endure
[Pre-Chorus]
She longs for better days
She's always been afraid

[Chorus]
And it's a shame, oh it's a shame
That you are throwin' your whole life away
And it's a shame, oh it's a shame
I wonder if you're ever gonna to change
It's a shame

[Verse 2]
You left her without leavin'
You hit her without swingin'
You took away without givin' a thing
Except for pain and sorrow
I'm prayin' that tomorrow
You will open up your eyes and see

[Chorus]
Well it's a shame, oh it's a shame
That you are throwin' your whole life away
And it's a shame, oh it's a shame
I wonder if you're ever gonna to change

[Outro]
Oh it's a shame
Oh it's a shame
Will you ever change?
Will you ever cha-ange?
