[Verse 1]
Careless, careless wishing
Oh, Lord, now what have I done?
Gone and left my only love
Broken, broken living
What troubles have I begun?
Could this be the life I've been dreamin' of?
[Chorus]
So leave me, I wouldn't blame you, dear
So long, I've been gone so long
And love me, I couldn't make you, dear
So long, I've been gone so long
[Verse 2]
Foreign turns familiar
Days go by on their own
And all our love
Come into pass
[Chorus]
So leave me, I wouldn't blame you, dear
So long, I've been gone so long
And love me, I couldn't make you, dear
So long, I've been gone so long
[Outro]
So long, I've been gone
So long, I've been gone, so long
So long, I've been gone
So long, I've been gone, so long
