Dont Be Careless Love — текст песни (Paul McCartney)

Burn the midnight lamp

Down until the dawn,

Ill keep watch until Im sure your coming home.



Shadows play and flicker on the bedroom wall

They turn into a bad dream overnight,

Something could be terribly wrong.



Dont be careless love,

Dont be careless love,

Dont be, dont be careless.



In my dream youre running nowhere

Every step youve taken turns to glue,

Walking down a spiral staircase

Failing through, failing through,



Dont be careless love,

Be careless love.



The lamp burns down and out

Im getting pretty tired of this,

I feel so bad something might be going amiss,



I wont be there so look out for yourself

Youre getting in deep whatever you do,

Dont let me go back to sleep,



Dont be careless love,

Dont be careless love,

Dont be, dont 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,



Dont be careless love,

Be careless love.

But in the morning light

When I wake up again

Youre by my side and thats the way its 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,

Dont be careless love.
