Taco - Carmella

(John David Parker-Tanja/Werner Lang/Taco Ockerse)

I found her in a dirty little cafe in an obscure part of Reno, 
sleeping in a corner
Her features suggested further beauty, but the picture she presented 
just made me shiver
I thought of the endless nights just searching with a handful 
of indications, most of them were useless
Now that the journey was over I wondered, was it worth it, what 
had happened to the girl 

Carmella, people call you the mystery star
You live on as a legend, but I searched for the truth
Carmella, you have haunted me ever since when I once featured 
beside you with a one-sentence line 

I ordered two double whiskey sodas as I needed all the courage 
to go and wake her
Then suddenly, two eyes burned right through me - I wanted to 
be certain who sat before me
She told me that there were many reasons about her disappearance, 
the torment she`d been through
Surgeons had ruined her sister`s face, then they made her take 
her place, but Conchita couldn`t act
