For the life of me I can't believe  That you're on your knees beggin' please  All the pushin' away and puttin' down  Can't you see you're getting' the run around  Oh it's plain to see you'd rescue me  From my lonliness so called unhappiness  Oh I didn't mean to cause you pain  I've got nothin' to lose and nothin' to gain    And don't waste your heart on a wild thing  She's got a soul that won't settle on one thing  Whoa this bird can't sing when you've tied it's wings  Don't waste your heart on me    It's funny how the girls get burned  And honey as far as I'm concerned  The tables have turned    And don't waste your heart on a wild thing  She's got a soul that won't settle on one thing  Whoa this bird can't sing when you've tied it's wings  Don't waste your heart on me    And I'm here to apologize  My heart can't compromise  Don't waste your heart on me
