[Verse 1: John Mellencamp]
How many summers still remain?
How many days are lost in vain?
Who's counting out these last dramatic years?
How many minutes do we have here?

[Chorus: John Mellencamp & Bruce Springsteen]
Wasted days
Wasted days
We watch our lives just fade away to
More wasted days

[Verse 2: Bruce Springsteen]
How much sorrow is there left to climb?
How many promises are worth the time?
And who on Earth is worth our time?
Is there a heart here that I can call mine?

[Chorus: John Mellencamp & Bruce Springsteen]
Wasted days
Wasted days
We watch our lives just fade away to
More wasted days

[Verse 3: John Mellencamp & Bruce Springsteen]
How can a man watch his life go down the drain?
How many moments has hе lost today?
And who among us could ever see clear?
Thе end is coming, it's almost here

[Chorus: John Mellencamp & Bruce Springsteen]
Wasted days
Wasted days
We watch our lives just fade away to
More wasted days
Wasted days
Wasted days
We watch our lives just fade away to
More wasted days
Wasted days
More wasted days
We watch our lives just slip away to
More wasted days
