PAUL MCCARTNEY - Don't Be Careless Love lyrics

rate me

Burn the midnight lamp

Down until the dawn

I'll keep watch until I'm sure your coming home.

Shadows play and flicker on the bedroom wall

They turn into a bad dream overnight

Something could be terribly wrong.

Don't be careless love

Don't be careless love

Don't bedon't be careless.

In my dream you're running nowhere

Every step you've taken turns to glue

Walking down a spiral staircase

Failing throughfailing through

Don't be careless love

Be careless love.

The lamp burns down and out

I'm getting pretty tired of this

I feel so bad something might be going amiss

I won't be there so look out for yourself

You're getting in deep whatever you do

Don't let me go back to sleep

Don't be careless love

Don't be careless love

Don't bedon't be careless.

Saw your face in the morning paper

Saw your body rolled up in a rug

Chopped up into two little pieces

By some thug

Don't be careless love

Be careless love.

But in the morning light

When I wake up again

You're by my side and that's the way it's always been

But in the dark your mind plays funny tricks on you

Your mind plays funny tricks on you

Your mind plays funny tricks on you

Don't be careless love.
