I let my heart fall into careless hands
Oh careless hands broke my heart in two
You held my dreams like worthless grains of sand
Oh careless hands don't care when dreams slip through

I brought you joy
And girl I loved you so
But all that sunshine didn't make the roses grow
If you don't change
Someday you'll know the sorrow

Of careless hands
That can't hold onto love

I brought you joy
And girl I loved you so
But all that sunshine didn't make the roses grow
If you don't change
Someday you'll know the sorrow
Of careless hands
That can't hold onto love
