Lyrics Careless - Amos Lee

You speak of love
But you ain't no lover
You were a friend
But more like a brother

As the miles passed beneath me
The sounds made so sweetly
Came to an end
And no man can deny her
But now you're a liar
And you've no room left to defend

When I left, I should have known better
The kind of man that you are
You'd have to get her

And I know you got a lot of pain
That's born inside you
But instead of growing stronger
You let it divide you

How could you be so careless
How could you be so careless

And the waves that are crashing
True lies and passion
Washing on your shore
A line has been crossed
A true love's been lost
That I can't get back anymore

And I'm sure
That we both still love her
It's a shame we both lost her
And in turn lost each other

But a trust has been broken
And words have been spoken
But it can't mend
And no man can deny her
As you laid beside her
I hope it felt good my friend

How could you be so careless
How could you be so careless
How could you be so careless
With her heart
