Careless Words

For years your soul's been weeping
Wondering lands so cold and and dark
searching for the pieces
Of an angels broken heart
Two careless words were spoken
Which tore your life apart
 
So running to your mother
To beg that it's not true
Five crying words from trembled lips
Do I belong to you
 
The world turned black
The sky fell in
For a girl so soft and meek
As she saw the first tear
Fall on her mothers cheek
