You contemplate the wilderness Is a show of words really a test Now the jack is back in his box An electric gate closes and locks You can say that it doesn't mean a thing As you stand alone and left just pondering How you lost your careless heart You lost your precious heart There are friends who weep for you today The perfect storm has arrived But you don't feel legitimised There's a ghost train leaving for the west Now the best days are put to rest You can start a new life anyway But don't try and tell me what the only son would say When you lost your careless heart You lost your careless heart There are friends who weep for you today You lost your careless heart Lost your precious heart She's the one who'll weep for you today Oh what a day Such a crazy day How you lost your careless heart How you lost your careless heart How you lost your careless heart How you lost your careless heart How you lost your careless heart
