For the life of me I cant believe
The youre on your knees beggin please
All the pushing away and puttin down
Cant you see youre gettin the run around
Oh its plain to see youd rescure me
From my loneliness so called unhappiness
Oh I didnt mean to cause you pain
Ive got nothin to lose and nothin to gain

And dont waste your heart on a wild thing
Shes got a soul that wont settle on one thing
Whoa this bird cant sing when youve tied its wings
Dont waste your heart on me

Its funny how the girls get burned
And honey as far as Im concerned
The tables have turned

And dont waste your heart on a wild thing
Shes got a soul that wont settle on one thing
Whoa this bird cant sing when youve tied its wings
Dont waste your heart on me

And Im here to apologize
My heart cant compromise
