Mayfield – Careless Love lyrics

Day in day out I work these shaking hands to the bone
I gave you everything I had 'till there was nothing left
I've got these reckless thoughts embedded deep in me
I don't possess the love you need, but that's okay with who I'm trying to be

Careless love, you left me a broken home
You're all I have, don't let me go
Careless love, I'll never truly know
You're all I have, don't let me go

You'll never see me the same way you thought you did when we were still in love
And I don't think you want to see who I've become

I know I had so much more to give, but I gave up
Now I lay stuck in the sheets of the grave I dug
Don't try and save me

Careless love, you left me a broken home
You're all I have, don't let me go
Careless love, I'll never truly know
You're all I have, don't let me go

I don't think I'll even sleep tonight, but I'll wake up and I'll think of someone else
We'll be on our own, and I'll be on the road with the world staring back at me
I never thought this is what it would be like, it all just changed
It's got me caving in (I feel like caving in)
Now we're on our own and feeling so alone
We'll be on the road again with the world at our hands

Careless love, you left me a broken home
You're all I have, don't let me go
Careless love, I'll never truly know
You're all I have, don't let me go
