Johnnie Taylor - We're Getting Careless With Our Love lyrics

rate me

Wake up, little darling<br />

It`s time to go home<br />

If sunrise catch us sleeping<br />

We`ll be caught up in the wrong<br />

<br />

Last time we were together<br />

You made it home in<br />

Just the nick of time<br />

We got so much love between us<br />

It`s getting hard to meet the deadline<br />

<br />

We`re getting careless with our love<br />

We`re getting careless with our love<br />

So careless with our love affair<br />

<br />

Wake up, little darling<br />

Because time, it won`t stand still<br />

Going home to someone<br />

You don`t love no more<br />

I know it`s against your will<br />

<br />

I hate to see you leave<br />

With tears all over your face<br />

Just like Sherlock Holmes<br />

The whole world is on my case<br />

<br />

We`re getting careless with our love<br />

I can`t help but get careless with our love<br />

We`re getting careless with our love affair<br />

<br />

Some people say that it`s wrong<br />

But it`s the only love we know<br />

And it keeps on getting strong<br />

<br />

Everytime we see each other<br />

Our love gets a little stronger<br />

That`s why I don`t want you to leave<br />

I wanna hold you a little longer<br />

<br />

We`re getting careless with our love<br />

I can`t help but get careless with our love<br />

We`re getting careless with our love affair<br />

<br />

Lord, have mercy now<br />

Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord<br />

<br />

I think we better find, I think<br />

We better find another meeting place<br />

Before the whole world is gonna know<br />

We might mess around<br />

And make a disgrace<br />

<br />

You see, honey<br />

The rumors are spreading<br />

The rumors are spreading all over town<br />

And we don`t wanna be like Mrs.Jones<br />

We can`t meet at the same place<br />

<br />

Every time I see you, baby<br />

I know other folk can see that<br />

Look that we have in our eyes<br />

<br />

Yeah, when you see me<br />

You`re supposed to walk on by<br />

But I can feel it in my heart<br />

That we`re getting careless<br />

Careless, careless, careless<br />

<br />

We`re getting careless<br />

We`re getting careless<br />

Careless, careless, careless<br />

Careless, careless , yeah<br />

<br />

We`re getting careless<br />

Careless, careless, careless<br />

We`re getting so careless</
