Smoke Rings Lyrics

Caroline
Brings me coffee and cigarettes
Remedies to help forget how the
Words would rise
To the ceiling like smoke rings
Never meaning anything
Water rise
But nothing seems to make much sense

Just when I feel I can't go

She's a friend of mine
She doesn't need a valentine
Or pretty talk about the sunshine, or
Silver lies
She penetrates the thin disguise, we
Listen to the night outside, she
Makes her plans
Why'd I try and understand?

Just when I feel
Just when I feel I can't go

From her room
We watch the violent colors die,
Listen to the traffic outside, she
Takes her time
While people rush off nowhere fast,
Caroline can only laugh
Caroline
Caroline can only laugh

Just when I feel I can't go

Well, her shared belief
Falls in pieces on the ground
Doesn't seem to make a sound, but
It scatters like our darkest ghost
I try to sweep the fragments up, while she
Holds the cards
She doesn't have to try so hard, but
She doesn't have to try so hard

Just when I feel
Just when I feel I can't go
Just when I feel
Just when I feel I can't go
Just when I feel I can't go
