well i hurt you once or twice i know
when all i ever wanted was just to breath
and i spin around and lose my ground
with everything that’s tugging at my sleeve
you’re like a dancer in my arms
every light and shadow i can see
you got a great big careless heart you said
but don’t you ever go away and leave

you got a big old heart
a great big careless heart

like the sun and the moon and rising tide
a splash of color on the break of day
something magic in the air
like when i just close my eyes and play
yeah but mostly i’m all tied in knots
not the guy who knows just what to say
you got a great big careless heart you said
but i wouldn’t know you any other way

like a fighter on the floor
learning how to take some
and get up when there’s nothing left to say
we never had too much before
didn’t need to know what for
falling down and living anyway

like the sun and the moon and the rising tide
a flash of color when you turn your eyes
you got a great big careless heart you said
and it didn’t come as any big surprise
—-
now you’re like a dancer in my heart
really only trying to be free
and i spin around and lose my ground
when all i ever wanted was just to see
the sun and the moon and the rising tide
and the crashing of your love into me
you got a great big careless heart you said
but don’t you ever go away and leave
