Carolyn the raven

[Intro]

She was a woman long time ago...

[Chorus]

Carol, Carol,

do you still remember your name?

A raven, raven,

yet your soul remains the same.

[Verse 1]

What remains of a past life

when we return in a different guise?

An obsidian bird now you have become

and yet you have come back to home.

I watch your shape from the window pane

waiting to hear your voice again.

I am your master and nothing else counts:

the time is far from healing all wounds.

I recall the fragrance of your scent,

the many days in the woods we spent,

Losing and finding each other in the mist

until the death gave you his kiss.

[Chorus]

Carol, Carol,

do you still remember your name?

A Raven, raven,

yet your soul remains the same.

[Verse 2]

They burnt you alive as if you were a witch

and then threw your ashes into a ditch.

Perhaps there is no peace even after die

and yours is but a restless wandering by.

A shadow of what you were and desired

A thin string of which that held us so wired

In the night when I hear your raven's voice

I am losing the past revising all my choice.

I would like to hear you speak one last time

within the walls of this manor covered in grime.

Who knows if love can overcome our last breath

and find its way beyond the realms of death.

[Chorus]

Carol, Carol,

do you still remember your name?

A Raven, raven,

yet your soul remains the same.

[Outro]
