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 puttin' down Can't you see you're gettin' 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 nothin' to lose and nothin' to gain You 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 You 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
