Careless Love ft. Till & Scarlet Lyrics

Say you love me well then show me

Don't you tell me that you know me

All you do is doubt my character

Make me doubt the sh- you told me

When all I ever did was care for ya

Guess I gotta be more careful huh

Expend no energy on careless love

My roots grew deep when times got tough, unaccepted growth

Your roots were bleeding poisoned love, you're poison, love

Think you know me that's the old me

That's the sh- that nearly broke me

There's a part I left behind

And that's the part that you've been holding

But people change and I been growing

So I been hoping we could cut the tension open

But lately I been hopeless holding onto these

Moments chosen, perfect focus, pictures frozen

If you play for only you, you'll only lose

You played yourself, you tied the noose

Hung my love to dry, why, why if you only knew

I was the friend you could never really see and in the end

Got as close as two strangers could ever really be

But bridges burn you live and learn

The tables turn had to discern

What it really meant to love you

Found out I could never really trust you

Cause you could never love me the way that I loved you

I helped your dreams come true

And even after all that, tell me what's it come to

From careless loves to care no more

A reckless love to wrecked rapport

Back when I'd lift you up, you chose the floor

Went from an open heart and open door

To wounded heart that's always sore

I know you know my love was pure

Doesn't matter now who loved who more

Still wish you love for what's in store

I just can't gift the love I did before

If you play for only you, you'll only lose

You played yourself, you tied the noose

Hung my love to dry, why, why if you only knew

The way I would've, been there for you

The times I could've, prepared you through

It's just such a shame, you couldn't see it too

You only saw yourself, you wouldn't see the truth

There's nothing left to say, just one thing to do

From now on I'll do me, and yeah you'll do you

I think it's for best, maybe you do too

I only wish the best, may you follow suit

Can we go back, back to where we started, baby

Let me love you, baby, yeah just like that
