CARELESSLY
by Mark Newstetter

How can I try to tell you,
All the things I want to say,
When I talk to you my words just vanish in thin air,
How can I tell you that I really care,
It seems so unfair to me,

You were the one I wanted,
But I acted so CARELESSLY

How can i even try,
To hide my desire for you,
My eyes betray my heart - my silence gives away my fears,
And every moment seems a hundred years,
You mean so much more to me,

You were the one I wanted,
But I acted so CARELESSLY

I know it's foolish,
I know I shouldn't care,
But I can't forget you,
I think of you everywhere I go

I know I'll find a way,
I've only got myself to blame,
if I can't face reality,
Seems like such a cruel duality,
That's drivin' me - drivin' me,


You were the one I wanted,
But I acted so CARELESSLY
