Careless Memories lyrics - Duran Duran

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

Fear hangs a plane of gun smoke

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 gun smoke

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?

'Cause 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
