CARELESS MEMORIES - LYRICS

Careless Memories"
from the Duran Duran album, "Duran Duran"

So soon just after your gone
My senses sharpen
But it always takes so damn long
Before I see how much my eyes have darkened

Fear hangs a plane of gunsmoke
Drifting in our room
So easy to disturb with a thought with a whisper
With a careless memory... with a careless memory

On the table - signs of love lies scattered
And the walls break with a crashing within
It’s not as though as though you really mattered to me
But being close
How could I let you
Without some feeling
Some precious sympathy following

Fear hangs a plan of gunsmoke
Drifting in our room
So easy to disturb
With a thought
With a whisper
With a careless memory... with a careless memory

With a careless memory... with a careless memory
I walk out into the sun to try to find a new day
But the whole place just screams in my eyes
Where are you now?
Cuz I don’t want to meet you
I think I’d die
I think I’d laugh at you
I know I’d cry
What am I supposed to do? Follow you?

Outside the thoughts come flooding back now
I just try to forget you
So easy to disturb
With a thought
With a whisper
With a careless memory... with a careless memory
With a careless memory
