Mark Erelli - Careless Lyrics

You left a note on the counter
I found it when I got home from work
You only wrote a few lines
But in between em I could read the hurt
Now it's almost 10
And still you haven't come home or called
I've had nothing but time to think
Staring at the clock on the kitchen wall

Careless
How could I be so careless
Oh and I'd say a prayer if I thought it could turn back time
If you give me one more shot
Honey I swear I'd give it all I got
And I would not be so careless
Careless with your love

Oh the days are long
But the years pass in the blink of an eye
For a love to stay strong
You got to work it all the time
It's more than just the birthdays
And the anniversaries
And I know just what I'd say if you walked through that door
And found me down on my knees

Careless
How could I be so careless
Oh and I'd say a prayer if I thought it could turn back time
If you give me one more shot
Honey I swear I'd give it all I got
And I would not be so careless
Careless with your love
