Careless Love
Careless Love: A Melodic Tale of Heartbreak and Redemption
Lyrics
Love, oh love, oh careless love
Love is portrayed as careless and unpredictable.
You've fly through my head like wine
Love is intoxicating, overwhelming the speaker's thoughts like wine.
You've wrecked the life of a many poor girl
Love has negatively impacted the lives of many unfortunate girls.
And you nearly spoiled this life of mine
Love has almost ruined the speaker's own life.
Love, oh love, oh careless love
Reiteration of the theme of love being careless and uncontrollable.
In your clutches of desire
Love is depicted as a desire that captures and ensnares.
You've made me break a many true vow
Love has caused the speaker to break many sincere promises.
Then you set my very soul on fire
Love has ignited intense passion and emotion in the speaker.
Love, oh love, oh careless love
Repetition emphasizing the destructive nature of love.
All my happiness bereft
Love has taken away all the speaker's happiness.
You've filled my heart with weary old blues
Love has filled the speaker's heart with a deep and sorrowful feeling.
Now I'm walkin', talkin' to myself
The impact of love has led the speaker to solitude and self-reflection.
Love, oh love, oh careless love
Continuation of the theme of love being untrustworthy.
Trusted you now, it's too late
Trusting love has consequences, and it's too late for the speaker.
You've made me throw my old friend down
Love has caused the speaker to abandon a loyal friend.
That's why I sing this song of hate
Expressing resentment and hatred due to the actions of love.
Love, oh love, oh careless love
Reiteration of the theme of love causing pain and suffering.
Night and day, I weep and moan
The speaker experiences constant emotional distress day and night.
You brought the wrong man into this life of mine
Love has brought the wrong person into the speaker's life.
For my sins, till judgment I'll atone
The speaker anticipates judgment and atonement for their sins related to love.
