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 along 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
