Careless Hands
Love Slips Away: Unveiling the Heartache in Tex Ritter's Careless Hands
Lyrics
I let my heart fall into careless hands
I entrusted my heart to someone without caution
Careless hands broke my heart in two
Those careless hands caused my heart to break into two
You held my dreams like worthless grains of sand
You treated my dreams as if they were worthless and insignificant
Careless hands don't care when dreams slip through
Indifferent hands don't care when dreams slip away
I brought you joy
I brought happiness and delight to you
And girl I loved you so
I loved you deeply
But all that sunshine didn't make the roses grow
However, despite the positive moments, they didn't lead to further growth or prosperity
If you don't change
If you don't change your ways
Someday you'll know the sorrow of careless hands
Someday, you will experience the pain caused by careless actions
That can't hold onto love
Hands that cannot maintain a grasp on love
I let my heart fall into careless hands
I allowed my heart to be handled without care
Careless hands broke my heart in two
These careless hands caused my heart to shatter
You held my dreams like worthless grains of sand
You treated my aspirations as if they were meaningless
Careless hands don't care when dreams slip through
Indifferent hands show no concern when dreams fade away
I brought you joy
I brought you happiness
And dear I loved you so
I loved you dearly
But all that sunshine didn't make the roses grow
However, despite the positive moments, they didn't lead to further growth or prosperity
If you don't change
If you don't change your ways
Someday you'll know the sorrow of careless hands
Someday, you will experience the pain caused by careless actions
That can't hold onto love
Hands that cannot maintain a grasp on love
Careless hands that can't hold onto love
Reiteration of the inability to hold onto love
Talking 'bout those hands
Emphasis on the discussion about those careless hands
That can't hold onto love
Reiteration of the inability to hold onto love
Talking 'bout those hands
Emphasis on the discussion about those careless hands
That can't hold onto love
Reiteration of the inability to hold onto love
