Lyrics Duran Duran – Careless Memories
Text:
So soon,
Just after you’ve gone
My senses sharpen
But it always takes
So damned long
Before I feel how much
My eyes have darkened
Before I feel 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
On the table
Signs of love life scattered…
And the walls break
We go crashing within
It’s not as though—
As though you really mattered
But being close,
How could I let you go
Without some feeling
Some precious sympathy following
Fear hangs a plane of gunsmoke
Drifting in our room
So easy to disturb
With a thought
With a whisper…
With a careless memory
I walk out into the sun
I try to find a new day
But the whole place
It 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 think I’d cry—
What am I supposed to do,
Follow you?
But the whole place
It 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 think 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…
