Don’t Waste the Pretty (Remix) Lyrics

[Verse 1: Allison Iraheta]
Dust it off, break it down
Get to what we're talking about
Do what we're talking about
Don't try and hide it now
Why keep on working it out?
You can't keep working it out

[Pre-Chorus 1: Allison Iraheta]
'Cause the light in you started to fade
Don't let it get away
Girl, you’re worth so much more

[Chorus: Allison Iraheta]
Don’t waste the pretty on him
Don’t waste the pretty on pain
When it gets too much to take, don’t give it away
Don’t waste the pretty on life
Soon it's gonna fly on by
Whatever way, you gotta see
Don’t waste the pretty

[Verse 2: Allison Iraheta]
Sit back and breathe it in
Look at how lucky we are
Look at how lucky we are
This life we’re livin’ in
You gotta follow your heart
You know I’m never too far
[Pre-Chorus 2: Allison Iraheta]
'Cause I know you can turn this around
Don't be scared, work it out
And listen when I say (Listen when I say)

[Chorus: Allison Iraheta]
Don’t waste the pretty on him
Don’t waste the pretty on pain
When it gets too much to take, don’t give it away
Don’t waste the pretty on life
Soon it's gonna fly on by
Whatever way, you gotta see
Don’t waste the pretty

[Bridge: Alison Iraheta & (Orianthi)]
And just in case you need remindin’
Well, you’re beautiful (Beautiful), beautiful (Beautiful), beautiful (beautiful)
And there ain't no use in you hiding
‘Cause you're beautiful, you're beautiful, you're beautiful

[Guitar Solo: Orianthi]

[Chorus: Allison Iraheta]
Don’t waste the pretty on him (Him)
Don’t waste the pretty on pain (Pain)
When it gets too much to take, don’t give it away
Don’t waste the pretty on life
Soon it's gonna fly on by
Whatever way, you gotta see
Don’t waste the pretty
[Outro: Allison Iraheta]
Yeah
Don’t waste the pretty, don’t waste the pretty
(Don’t waste the pretty)
Don’t, don’t
Don’t waste the pretty, don’t waste the pretty
Don’t, don’t
Don’t waste the pretty, don’t waste the pretty, don’t waste the pretty
(Well, you’re beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful)
Don’t waste the pretty, don’t waste the pretty
Don’t, don’t
Don’t waste the pretty, don’t waste the pretty
Don’t, don’t
Don’t waste the pretty, don’t waste the pretty, don’t waste the pretty

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
