Careless You were so careless with my heart And you damn near You damn near tore it apart
Told me you’re loving Somebody else But you still wanna keep me Sitting here on your shelf
I’m no stand-in I’m no one’s second-best I’m not your maybe I might call her When there’s no else left to impress
Hopeless I’m hopelessly lost in you And now it’s clear to me, baby You just want your cake and eat it too
Go home now, go, oh Go ahead and walk out that door And don’t you ever Don’t you ever, never call me no more
I’m no stand-in I’m no one’s second-best I’m not your maybe I might call her When there’s no else left to impress And I’m no side piece I’m not just some bump on the road I’m not your maybe be your baby When you got someone else at home
I’m a diamond, diamond Shining bright, glitter and gold Baby, I’m the best thing The best thing you never had The strength to hold, oh
I’m no stand-in I’m no one’s second-best I’m not your maybe I might call her When there’s no else left to impress And, baby, I’m no side piece I’m not just some bump on the road I’m no maybe be your baby When you got someone else Someone else to hold Someone else to hold
