lyrics

Careless love, my sweetheart said to me
I thought it was dead to me
It’s sad but it’s true
If you love me, then baby love me
Cause to leave me, yeah that would be cruel
Make me forget all the heartache, and
Don’t ask what love can do for you

It’s a dream, it's mirrors and smokescreens
Just a dream, does she think I’m a fool?
Careless love, though you’ve shaken and wrecked me
And all the games we used to play seem worn out and abused
Oh what’s a loving man to do?

When we live in a practical world
A clean and rational world
It’s a mean and tactical world
If you believe what you read
But that’s not the half of the world
There’s a sharp and natural world
It’s a dark and magical world
That we can’t see
It gives me everything I need

Oh engines and fables and crickets and tables are turning
Lovers and cradles and pitchforks and babies are blue
And everything over the ocean is quietly burning
So don’t ask what love
Don’t ask what love
Don’t ask what love can do for you
