The good old days that never were
Are what she reaches for
Carry on, carry on, forget about me
Her body sways, she doesn't care
She pulls me to the floor
Carry on, carry on, forget about me
Holes in my shoes
Waiting in queues all day
You went with me
Holes in my shoes
Waiting in queues
The past that never was
The feathered brooms that brush away
The details that still hurt
Carry on, carry on, forget about me
The ransacked tombs of happy days
Leaves me with the dirt
Carry on, carry on, forget about me
