Lyrics
Careless
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It takes to make a home
But only one to break it down
Restless as the ocean roar
You've finally left town
Open up the bedroom door
There's a prince without a crown
You could not care less
And that was the first sign
But now you guess
That you've been too careless this time
You left him sleeping like a child
In the arms of someone else
Found it hard to criticise
Because you've done the same yourself
Pleasure is a pretty thing
Oh but love they say is wealth
You could not care less
And that was the first sign
But now you guess
That you've been too careless this time
