Wor(l)d of Morrissey
  We're back! Welcome to the world of Morrissey's lyrics.

This site and all of the work made to keep it updated during the last 26 years are dedicated to my beloved friend MaCa65 who suddenly left this lonely planet
and me without words. Throughout the short stretch of time that we have been given to spend together as close friends, we shared many things,
thoughts, afternoons, views, passions and some bits of Life. Back in 1983, together we discovered a band called The Smiths and together since then, we followed Morrissey's career
as one of the most influential and inspiring singer/artist/poet of our age. Maca65 has always been a strong supporter since when I first launched WoM,
so this is and will always be entirely for you, my friend. -- David

When Last I Spoke To Carol

When last I spoke to Carol I said:
"I can't pretend it gets easier."
She said: "I've hung on, I have edged
along this narrow ledge
since the day I was born in 1975."

When last I spoke to Carol I said:
"I can't pretend I feel love for you."
She said: "I've hammered a smile
across this pasty face of mine
since the day I was born in 1975."

When I said goodbye to Carol
Black earth upon the casket fell
She had faded to
Something I always knew
To the rescue
Nobody ever comes.

Quando ho parlato con Carol per l'ultima volta

Quando ho parlato con Carol per l'ultima volta le ho detto:
"Non posso fingere che andrà meglio."
E lei disse: "Ho resistito, ho camminato lungo il bordo
di questo stretto cornicione
fin dal giorno in cui sono nata nel 1975."

Quando ho parlato con Carol per l'ultima volta le ho detto:
"Non posso fingere che sento amore per te."
E lei disse: "Mi sono stampata un sorriso
su questa mia pallida faccia
fin dal giorno in cui sono nata nel 1975."

Quando ho detto addio a Carol
terra scura cadeva nella bara
Lei era svanita in qualcosa
che avevo sempre saputo
Al salvataggio
nessuno giunge mai.
