Burn the midnight lamp down until the dawn
I ll keep watch until I m sure you re 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 be, don t be careless love
In my dreams you re running nowhere
Every step you ve taken turns to glue
Walking down a spiral staircase
Falling through, falling through
Don t be careless love
Don t be careless love
The lamp burns down and out
I m getting pretty tired of this
I feel so bad, something must 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 be, don t be careless love
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
