I has somebody   Somebody who loved me   Someone so good to me   You were my angel   You were my heaven   But I was to blind to see      I let you slip away   I guess I never knew   I had the world with you   I'd be there   Still be there   In your arms      If not for my careless heart   You'd still be loving me   If not for my careless heart   You'd still be mine      I wouldn't have this hurt inside   I wouldn't have these tears to cry   If not for my   Careless heart   If not for my    Careless heart      I had my chances   I took advantage   I took it all too far   So now you're gone   and I'm all alone   Alone with my lonely heart      I let it fall apart   I didn't care enough   I lost your precious love   You'd be here   You'd be here   In my arms      If not for my   Careless heart   You'd still be loving me   If not for my   Careless heart   You'd still be mine      I wouldn't have this hurt inside   I wouldn't have these tears to cry   If not for my careless heart   If not for my careless heart      You'd still be mine   I'd be loving you   I'd be holding you   I'd be loving you   If not for my   Careless heart   CHORUS
