Don't Waste Your Heart

For the life of me I can't believe
That you're on your knees beggin' please
All the pushin' away and putting down

Can't you see you're getting the run-around

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

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 its 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 its 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
