How many cabs in New York City?
How many angels on a pin?
How many notes on a saxophone?
How many tears in a bottle of gin?
How many times did you call my name?
Knock at the door but you couldn't get in.
I know,
I've been,
Careless.
I've been wrapped up in a shell.
Nothing could get through to me.
Acted like I didn't know.
I had friends and family.
I saw worry in their eyes.
It didn't look like fear to me.
I know,
I've been,
Careless.
I've lost,
my tenderness.
I've been,
Careless.
I took, bad care of this.
Like a mixture in a bottle.
Like a frozen over lake.
Like a long time faded smile.
I got so hot I had to crack.
You were there you held the line.
You're the one that brought me back.
I know,
I've been,
Careless.
I've lost,
my tenderness.
I've been,
Careless.
I took, bad care of this.
How many cabs in New York City?
How many angels on a pin?
How many notes on a saxophone?
How many tears in a bottle of gin?
How many times did you call my name?
Knock at the door but you couldn't get in?
How many stars in the Milky Way?
How many ways can you loose a friend?
