I made a mistake, a really bad mistake,
But I got through it in the end
Oh my heart breaks, when I see you make your own mistakes,
And they linger at the back of your mind again
But I remember when you were careless
And I remember when you were free like me
I think I loved you when you were careless
So careless care less about me
Oh how you worry, but you'll worry yourself away
Until there's nothing but a skin and bone
No need to hurry, relax it's all OK
Life is too short to wait beside the phone
And I remember when you were careless
And I remember when you were free like me
I think I loved you when you were careless
So careless care less about me
Just tell yourself there's no reason to be crying,
Because you are beautiful
No need for wealth, it's easy to be flying
Live for yourself and live it to the full
'Cos I remember when you were careless
And I remember when you were free like me
I think I loved you when you were careless
So careless care less about me
Remember when you were happy
Remember when you had control
Sometimes I dream of you nightly
Sometimes I dream of you on your own
On your own
I remember when you were careless
And I remember when you were free like me
I think I loved you when you were careless
So careless care less about me
