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
