Sometimes it seems unimaginable That you were ever any other way With your white rose face and your orphan clothes Embroidered jeans and silver chains You're a well known face in all the hang-out places Where the lost souls congregate You sit all night, but you talk too fast I don't know what you're trying to say Oh Carol, I think it's time for running for cover, a-ha Believe me, you're everyone's and nobody's lover, a-ha You've got a one-way ticket for all your yesterdays I know your daddy said he'd talk to you But he never really found the time And your TV mother with her cocktail eyes Could never really reach your mind So you fixed your star to a passing dream And took a cocaine holiday Now the years flow round you in a muddy stream And you need another place to stay. Oh Carol, I think it's time for running for cover, a-ha Believe me, you're everyone's and nobody's lover, a-ha You've got a one-way ticket for all your yesterdays Reach down, silvery ship from the stars, I know you're there I know you'll understand me, you can take me anywhere I know you must be there Well, sometimes it seems impossible That the game could get that rough But the stage is set, the exit's barred And the make-up won't come off So you make your bow to the balcony You light another cigarette And the lights grow dim as the music starts And it's easy to forget Oh Carol, I think it's time for running for cover, a-ha Believe me, you're everyone's and nobody's lover, a-ha You've got a one-way ticket for all your yesterdays Reach down, silvery ship from the stars, I know you're there I know you'll understand me, you can take me anywhere I know you must be there
