Duran Duran - Careless Memories Lyrics

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 lie scattered
And the walls break with a 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 know 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...
