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 It's 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 to 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 백장미 같은 새하얀 얼굴에 쇠줄이 달린 요란한 청바지에 너저분한 옷을 입은 당신을 보면 전에는 그런 모습이 아니었다는 걸 때로는 상상조차 할 수가 없어 영혼을 잃은 사람들이 모이는 놀기 좋은 곳이라면 어딜 가나 당신을 볼 수 있지 당신은 밤새 앉아서 지껄여 대지만 모두지 무슨 말을 하는지 알 수가 없어 캐롤, 이제 그만 둘 때가 된 것 같아 정말이야, 당신은 만인의 연인이자 그 누구의 연인도 아냐 당신은 그 모든 과거로 돌아갈 편도 차표를 한 장 갖고 있지 아버지가 대화를 하겠다고 했지만 시간을 내지 못한 거 알고 있어 치켜 올라간 눈으로 TV만 보는 어머니는 당신 마음을 절대 이해 못했지 그래서 당신의 별을 스쳐 지나가는 꿈에 실어 약물에 빠져 지냈어 이제 그 세월들은 흙탕물이 되어 당신 주위를 흐르고 당신은 다른 곳을 찾아 봐야 할거야 캐롤, 이제 그만 둘 때가 된 것 같아 정말이야, 당신은 만인의 연인이자 그 누구의 연인도 아냐 당신은 그 모든 과거로 돌아갈 편도 차표를 한 장 갖고 있지 별들을 가르는 은빛 배를 향해봐 그 곳에 당신이 있다는 걸 알아 나를 이해해 주는 당신은 날 어디든 데려다 줄 수 있어 당신은 내 곁에 있어 줄거야 가끔은 어쩔 수 없이 힘든 상황이 닥치기도 하지 무대가 준비되고 출구는 막히고 꾸며낸 이야기도 아무 소용이 없거든 그래서 객석에 인사를 하고 또 담배에 불을 붙이지 그리고 음악이 시작되고 조명이 어두워지면 쉽사리 망각하고 말아 캐롤, 이제 그만 둘 때가 된 것 같아 정말이야, 당신은 만인의 연인이자 그 누구의 연인도 아냐 당신은 그 모든 과거로 돌아갈 편도 차표를 한 장 갖고 있지 별들을 가르는 은빛 배를 향해봐 그 곳에 당신이 있다는 걸 알아 나를 이해해 주는 당신은 날 어디든 데려다 줄 수 있어 당신은 내 곁에 있어 줄거야 |

I was drawn by the sirens of Titan
Carried along by their call Seeking for a way to enlighten Searching for the sense of it all Like a kiss on the wind I was thrown to the stars Captured and ordered in the army of Mars Marching to the sound of the drum in my head I followed the call Only to be Malachi Constant I thought I came to this earth Living in the heart of the moment With the riches I gained at my birth But here in the yellow and blue of my days I wander the endless Mercurian caves Watching for the signs the Harmonians make The words on the walls I was drawn by the sirens of Titan And so I came in the end Under the shadow of Saturn With statues and birds for my friends Finding a home at the end of my days Looking around I've only to say I was the victim of a series of accidents As are we all I was drawn by the sirens of Titan (as are we all) As are we all I was drawn by the sirens of Titan (as are we all) As are we all... |

First time I saw you, you were Mr. Natural
You seemed so diffident, you hardly spoke at all Now you come to me and you've got green streaks in your hair You walk like Greta Garbo, but you talk like Yogi Bear So tell me now What's going on? What's going on? I really don't believe what's going on; what's going on? Anyone in the farmouse could have given you the news You think you're in control but you're only being used I know your head is in the sky, you're easy to deceive But how you fell for this I really don't believe So tell me now What's going on? What's going on? I really don't believe what's going on; what's going on? All those rock 'n' roll star heroes you spend your time around You may think you're one of them but you're a hundred thousand down What are you going to do when the company calls its money in? How'll you feel stuck out in the rain without a friend? What's going on? What's going on? I really don't believe what's going on; what's going on? |

It's the kind of grey November day that washes away reflections
In the eyes of hotel porters And the latticed wooden benches by the sea contain no travellers Or Irish lady authors And the girl in the raincoat walks the lanes of Brighton With her collar turned against the wind And hovers in the doorways of second-hand bookshops Among the dust and fading print And you're not the one she's thinking of And you're not the one she really wants Just a point along the line she's leaving from She goes into a cafe, orders tea, looks at the menu But there's nothing really on it And the place is as deserted as a plaza in a heat-wave And the cloth has jam upon it But the girl in the raincoat doesn't stop to count the tea-leaves Or turn to see the mists around the sun For the winter's unfolding around her And it's time for moving on And you're not the one she's thinking of And you're not the one she really wants Just a station on the line she's leaving from And so you sit there in the middle of the carpet With her suitcases around you And it comes to you she journeyed to the center of your life But she never really found you Just another girl in a raincoat Who shared the passing of the days And you're glad of the warmth that she gave you And you hardly need to say That she's not the one you're thinking of No she's not the one you really want Just a point along the line you're leaving from |

He heard the clatter of her heels in the street
The clock said half-past three He lay there waiting in the dark to hear The scraping of the front-door key He wouldn't say to her "Don't want to know where you were" She wouldn't find him there Next time She missed the train, she felt the rain upon her face It seemed to clear her head She watched him drive into the night A broken tail-light, a speck of red She still felt his touch It didn't seem to mean that much She wouldn't go back there Next time When you were just a kid you loved To go to movies in the afternoon And so you left the factory And got a job in the projection-room Bette Davis plays Ran away with the passing days You'll be a movie-star Next time |

When we came to the station all the trains were rusty
The doors were open and the windows broken in There was grass in all the cracks and the air hung musty The travel posters were flapping in the wind So we moved through the dust and gloom Playing waiting games in the waiting-room Lay our sleeping-bags out on the floor And on Sunday morning easy rider comes to me with apple cider Leaves me here without a place to go If I followed the coast road, I'd be home by evening The harbour lights still cut across the bay From the slot machine arcade the lights go streaming To the bikes outside the rock 'n' roll cafe Ah but you know those small town blues Are really too much to lose There's nothing really there to go back for And on Sunday morning easy rider comes to me with apple cider Leaves me here without a place to go Any railway station would be just fine, fine, fine To settle down and wash the cobwebs from your head Oh, if your situation's running dry, dry, dry Find a waiting-room beneath the stars to make your bed' Cause you know London can make your brain stall The streets get cold and empty on a rainy night So you duck into the subway station, you can hear the trains call They want to take you to the Earl's Court Road, but it don't seem right Cause it's na, na, na noowah On the juke-box, singing in the burger bar See the people's faces in the passing cars don't want to know And on Sunday morning easy rider comes to me with apple cider Leaves me here without a place to go You have the most appealing surface I have seen Bring it over here, lay it down by me Don't mean to make you nervous, I just mean To make you see, this is the place to be When we came to the station all the trains were rusty The air was empty and the platforms overgrown There were old tin cans and cats and the doors were crusted With mud and leaves and names carved long ago And the rails go on for ever in a silver trail to the setting sun You can follow them anywhere you want to go And on Sunday morning easy rider comes to me with apple cider Leaves me here without a need to know |

Oh you slipped away from the harbour side
In the morning bright and clear And your sails were filled with the rising wind And you laughed for all to hear But you never glanced at the ragged dance Of your lovers on the quay Don't call on them when the winds rise high On the dark and the rolling sea Oh you set your course for the furthest shores And you never once looked back And the flag you flew was a pirate cross On a field of velvet black And those landsmen who you but lately knew Were left stranded on the lea Don't call on them when the storm clouds rise On the dark and the rolling sea Oh I have no need of a chart or creed You told your waiting crew For the winds of chance, they will bear us straight And you spoke as though you knew So you paid no mind to the warning signs As you gave your words so free Don't change your tack when the timbers crack On the dark and the rolling sea Now the thunder rails in the great mainsails And the stars desert the skies And the rigging strains as the hands of rain Reach down to wash your eyes And your oarsmen stands with his knife in hand And his eyes spell mutiny Don't call my name when your ship goes down On the dark and the rolling sea |

Hello old friend, what a strange coincidence to find you
It's been fifteen years since we last met, but I still recognised you So call the barman over here, and let us fill our glasses And drink a toast to olden times where all our memories lie Where all our memories lie Do you remember the time we were young? Lowly, lowly, low Outside the window the frosty moonlight hung On the midnight snow So we pulled our scarves around our faces in the night Huddled on the doorsteps where the fairylights shone bright Singing Christmas carols while our breath hung in the light It all comes back like yesterday It almost seems like yesterday Do you remember the changes as we grew? Slowly, slowly, slow Sneaking in the back way into movies after school For the evening show Chasing skinny blue jean girls across the building-site Checking out the dance floor while the band played "Hold Me Tight" See the blonde one over there: I bet she'd be alright It all comes back like yesterday It almost seems like yesterday While I talked he sat and he never made a sound Staring at the glass beside me Hey old friend, tell me what's on your mind? Silence grows on you like ivy Ivy Do you remember the church across the sands? Holy, holy, ho You stood outside and planned to travel the lands Where the pilgrims go So you packed your world up inside a canvas sack Set off down the highway with your rings and Kerouac Someone said they saw you in Nepal a long time back Tell me why you look away Don't you have a word to say? He said, "I don't remember ... I Don't want to remember In fact I've heard too much already I don't want to think, just leave me here to drink Wrapped up in the warmth of New York City Oh, oh, it seems you just don't know And you just don't understand me I've got no use for the tricks of modern times They tangle all my thoughts like ivy Ivy" So I left him, and I went out to the street Lowly, lowly, low Where the red light girls were coming after me Forty dollar show All across the city's heart the lights were coming on The hotel lift softly hummed a Cole Porter song If I went to look for him I knew he would be gone A picture-card of yesterday A photograph of yesterdayAnd far off in a deserted part of town The shadows like a silent army Flooded out the rooms in pools of blue and brown And stuck to all the walls like ivy Ivy Ivy |
