"Carlita" lyrics

"Carlita"

Well after today I'll never see you
And you'll be left with your life
Collecting all your souvenirs
I'll never get it right

Empty man, hollow man
I call myself a hermit
My self esteem contingent on
The way you look at me

I'm hanging on your words
Yeah I'm reading
All your thoughts
If only I could be you now
'Cause you got the control

Well after today I'll never see you
And you'll be left with your life
Collecting all your souvenirs
I'll never get it right

Empty man, lonely man
I call myself depressed
I'm finding ways to avoid you
At the expense of sanity

I'm hanging on your words
And I'd like to share a thought
I know that I can't be you now
But I'd like to stay a while

Well after today I'll never see you
And you'll be left with your life
Collecting all your souvenirs
I'll never get it right

I'm hanging on your words
Yeah I'm reading
All your thoughts
If only I could be you now
'Cause you got the control

Well after today I'll never see you
Yeah after today I'll never see
Never see

Well after today I'll never see you
And you'll be left with your life
That doesn't show it's bringing me down
This is my goodbye
I'll never get it right
Never get it right

Play it, Goldfinger
