Walking down by the water tonight Standing there where her body touched mine And I stay and watch the young ones Making my mistakes See them reckless with their hearts See them throw their love away You would think that we would learn That once is enough See them reckless with their words And all the dreams just laid to waste In trading emptiness away for reckless love Lonely roads, weak and aching inside Naked truth on the edge of a lie As they stumble through the motions And the chance we take See them reckless with their hearts See them throw their love away You've felt that hot knife in your back Once is enough See them reckless in the night As they all come out to play In trade their emptiness away to reckless love See them reckless with their hearts See them throw their love away You would think by now we'd learn That once was enough See them reckless with their lies And all their dreams they've laid to waste As we surrender to the dance of reckless love
