Careless Love

I fell in a hole where it was dark Fooled by a crevasse in my heart If only you could tell me that Someday I'd find my way back out You are the water to my flower You are the sunshine to my love I'm the bird that's stuck inside your mouth Let me out Can you kick it Cause as the fingers tiptoe up to your throat That day you will know your song Careless love I've been pacing round my cage at night I'm bustin' for a fight Will you come a little closer? Hang your jaw out in the light? Let me into your cathedral I wanna see what's under those clothes I'll shed my sins and all my deep regrets Because in the end all I have Is my heart and it's true Last night the wind was blowing at my door I curled my toes and cowed under the pillow Surrounded by some gentle thoughts I'll slowly open up that door I will rise as the sun comes down I'll spread my wings as Satan sings I'll throw a cup of wine to all of those Who used to say that someday You'll conquer the whole world With a careless promise of love
