When I Last Spoke to Carol Lyrics

When last I spoke to Carol I said:
"I can't pretend it gets easier." she said:
"I've hung on, I have edged
Around this narrow ledge since
The day I was born in 1975."
When last I spoke to Carol I said:
"I can't pretend I feel love for you." she said:

"I've hammered a smile across
This pasty face of mine since the
Day I was born in 1975."
When I said goodbye to Carol
Black earth upon the casket fell
She had faded to
Something I always knew
To the rescue
Nobody ever comes.
