Don't talk to me of shattered dreams Of course you don't know what it means To live for someone else you just can't take Oh, and when you're bitten by the truth You blame it on your misspent youth You never seem to learn by your mistakes So don't talk to me of wild, wild angels Wild, wild angels on the sky ways Those wild, wild angels on the highways of your life 'Cause it's people like you who never knew What wild, wild angels have to face Oh, and I ain't hangin' round to see You turn on someone else like me I'm still alive and you know the way I live But baby, that's one way you'll never be Such simple things you fail to see You take back everything you ever given So don't talk to me of wild, wild angels Wild, wild angels on the sky ways Those wild, wild angels on the highways of your life 'Cause it's people like you who never knew What wild, wild angels have to face
