Careless Love

Chorus
Love, oh love, oh careless love
Love, oh love, oh careless love
Love, oh love, oh careless love
You see what love has done to me

Sorrow, sorrow to my heart,... (x3)
When my true love and I did part

Once I wore my apron low,... (x3)
You'd follow me through rain or snow

Now I wear my apron high,... (x3)
You see my door and pass it by

Cried last night and the night before,... (x3)
I'll cry tonight and cry no more
