Carol Lee

Our intentions were the best ones but that hardly goes to explain
How the sun just went in on us left us standing in the rain
I go walking by the river and the wind calls out your name
Look around me no one behind me and time moves with me like in a dream
Carol Lee gone again coming back she don’t say when
I sit here waiting as the evening’s coming on
And all these images I find bits and pieces in my mind
All these reasons all these signs pointing nowhere
And why we do it why we cared Who we were and what we shared
Some improbable incredible moments could have meant the world
And it’s like we weren’t even there like we weren’t even there
And that darkness just keeps coming on and on and on
By my window light a candle and I sit there in the cold night air
Times her perfume fills the whole room and I can feel her presence everywhere
Carol Lee gone again coming back she don’t say when
I sit here waiting as the evening’s coming on
And all these images I find bits and pieces in my mind
All these reasons all these signs pointing nowhere
And why we do it why we cared who we were and what we shared
Some improbably incredible moments could have meant everything
And it’s like we weren’t even there like everything now it’s all gone
And I just sit here hanging onto all that darkness and it just goes on and on
and on… nowhere
Our intentions were the best one but that hardly goes to explain
How the sun just went in on us left us standing in the rain
