Careless love (Arr. of Chopin's Etude Op. 10, No. 3)
MARTHA E. KOENIG, SPENCER WILLIAMS, W.C. HANDY
Why do we love so carelessly
A broken heart can never feel the same
Why do we make everything so hollow, and then borrow
Someone's love, selfishly
Why do we take the easy way
No looking back, you never see the pain
Why do we hurt, people who we care for, and would bear for
If we thought, with understanding and with caring in our hearts
If we could see, if only we could see
All the love we lost - carelessly
Why do we take and not return
No going back, you never meet again
Why do we think, always of our selfish need and go with greed
When if we knew with certainty and caring in our hearts
If we could see, if only we could see, all the love we lost
All the love we lost - carelessly
