Careless Words By Hunter Bailie

Careless words delivered thoughtlessly
Linger longer in the air
Again I’m acting Recklessly
And you think that I don’t care
But I do, Oooh I do

A quick retort without much thought
Can wind you right away
Violent like a boxers blow
Now I’m worried you won’t stay
But you do, You always do

Sometimes we say silly things
Are forgiven all the same
Other times we use careless words
Yet our love remains unchanged
Other times it gets more intense
It Really puts us to the test
In the end/it’s always true
Love will see us through

Sharp words delivered pointedly prick and poison to the core
Something like a scorpions sting
Yet somehow we want more, Yes we do

Gentle words offered up with love
so intimate and true take us to the heart of love
Will always say us through. yes they do
Words that come between us, they don’t stay
our love is far beyond reactive things we say
words which stand between us, fall away
we stronger together, despite some things, some days

Sometimes we say silly things
Are forgiven all the same
Other times we use careless words
Yet our love remains unchanged
Other times it gets more intense
It really puts us to the test
In the end/it’s always true
Love will see us through
