Verse 1

For the life of me I can't believe

That you're on your knees beggin please

All the pushing away and puttin down

Can't you see you're gettin the run around

Verse 2

Oh it's plain to see you'd rescue me

From my loneliness, so called unhappiness

Oh I didn't mean to cause you pain

I've got nothing to lose and nothing to gain

Chorus

Don't waste your heart on a wild thing

She's got a soul that was set on one thing

Oh this bird can't sing when you tie its wings

(, 2nd time)

Don't waste your heart on me

Inst:

Its funny how the girls get burned

But honey as far as I'm concerned

The tables have turned

Chorus

And I'm here to apologize, my heart can't compromise

Don't waste your heart on me
