Careless Words

Verse 1

Window open, night air drifts in

Heartbeat matches the old record spin

Midnight painting silhouettes on walls

Waiting for your call, waiting for your call

Pre-Chorus

Soft conversation, gentle and slow

Let the hours wander where they want to go

Chorus

Slide through the low glow, velvet shadow

Easy come, easy go, drifting slow

Careless words in the corners of the night

Say you might, say you might

Post-Chorus

Ooh la la la, ooh la la la

Verse 2

Silver laughter circled in glass

Promises blurred, fading so fast

Eyes steady, waiting for a sign

We pass the time, we pass the time

Pre-Chorus

Caught in a hush, just you and me

Moments linger where no one can see

Chorus

Slide through the low glow, velvet shadow

Easy come, easy go, drifting slow

Careless words in the corners of the night

Say you might, say you might

Post-Chorus

Ooh la la la, ooh la la la

Bridge

Smoky halos above the scene

Gentle laughter, slipping between

Pages turning in stories we spun

Lost in the night, coming undone

Chorus

Slide through the low glow, velvet shadow

Easy come, easy go, drifting slow

Careless words in the corners of the night

Say you might, say you might

Post-Chorus

Ooh la la la, ooh la la la

Ooh la la la, ooh la la la
