Careless Hands 1949

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 02 May 2003

I let my heart
fall into careless hands,
Careless hands
that broke my heart in two.
You held my dreams
like worthless grains of sand.
Careless hands don't care
when dreams slip through.
I brought you joy
and, dear, I loved you so,
but all that sunshine
didn't make the roses grow.
If you don't change some day
you'll know the sorrow
of careless hands
that can't hold on to love.

I let my heart
fall into careless hands,
Careless hands
that broke my heart in two.
You held my dreams
like worthless grains of sand.
Careless hands don't care
when dreams slip through.
I brought you joy
and, dear, I loved you so,
but all that sunshine
didn't make the roses grow.
If you don't change some day
you'll know the sorrow
of careless hands
that can't hold on to love.
