CARELESS HANDS

I  let  my  heart   fall  in - to Care-less  Hands,___
Care-less  Hands   that broke my heart in two.____
You held my  dreams  like  worth-less grains of   sand.___
Care-less  Hands   don't care when dreams slip  through.___

I brought you joy   and,  dear, I loved you so,____
but all that  sun-shine didn-n't  make  the  ros-es grow.___
If  you  don't change  some day you'll know the sor - row of
Care-less  Hands   that  can't hold  on - to  love.____
