Griffin, Patty - Be Careful Lyrics






All the girls in the Paris night
All the girls in the pale moonlight
All the girls with the shopping bags
All the girls with the washing rags

All the girls on the telephone
All the girls standing all alone
All the girls sitting on the wire
One by one fly into the fire

Be careful how you bend me
Be careful where you send me
Careful how you end me
Be careful with me

All the girls standing by your beds
All the girls standing on their heads
All the girls with the broken arms
All the girls with the deadly charms

All the girls in the restaurant
Pretending to be nonchalant
Funny girls on the TV shows
Close your eyes and they turn to snow

Be careful how you bend me
Be careful where you send me
Careful how you end me
Be careful with me

All the girls working overtime
Telling you everything is fine
All the girls in the beauty shops
Girls' tongues catching the raindrops

All the girls that you'll never see
Forever a mystery
All the girls with their secret ways
All the girls who have gone astray

Be careful how you bend me
Be careful where you send me
Careful how you end me
Be careful with me

Be careful how you bend me
Be careful with me

    As a guy I don't get this song, although it sounds nice. what is it that resonates with women? A feeling of not being treated with care? I'm honestly trying to understand why it touches you?

    C.... D....

    +Cory Danks I suppose you're addressing the women in your circles on Google+ ? But let me provide the information that the audience of this video is 40% male and 60% female, so it would seem this song doesn't resonate solely with women.

    (For me it's about being/feeling vulnerable. Which is beautifully underscored by how fragile the song sounds. )

    C.... D....

    As a gay guy, I totally get it. Love this song. Be careful, women are people too.

    C.... D....

    I think it's a song about emotional intimacy and really looking at a person, valuing them for who they are, rather than dismissing them based on gender.

    So yours is a good question. Do you consider yourself empathetic? Do you know any females who feel comfortable confiding in you? Are you able to listen without interrupting or trying to fix something that may or may not be broken? I'm not attacking you, just want you to ask yourself that question and answer it honestly. When she mentions the girls on TV who turn to snow, that can extend to IRL women too. Are we there only to gratify others' needs? We have an inner life that a lot of men never seem to see or value. Do you as a man have an inner life that you can show to others?

    You don't have to answer me, but those are the questions that rise up for me, listening to this song.

    C.... D....

    It's nice that you care to ask, Cory. Women are tough, can survive a lot, but we do wish to be treated with respect and gentleness.

  15. B.... A....

    Definitely one of my favorite songs, put to a wonderful tribute to us women. Brilliant and beautiful. Thank you.

  16. J.... A....

    J.... A....
