(when...)
When we were at school, our games were simple
I played a janitor, you played a monitor
Then you played with older boys and prefects
What's the attraction in what they're doing?
Chorus:
Hey, Carrie-Anne, what's your game now, can anybody play?
Hey, Carrie-Anne, what's your game now, can anybody play?
Verse 2:
You were always something special to me
Quite independent, never caring
You lost your charm as you were aging
Where is your magic disappearing?
(repeat chorus)
Bridge:
You're so - so like a woman to me (so like a woman to me)
su
So (so!) - so like a woman to me (like a woman to me)
(steel drum solo over verse chords)
(repeat chorus)
Verse 3:
People live and learn, but you're still learning
You use my mind and I'll be your teacher
When the lesson's over, you'll be with me
Then I'll hear the other people saying
(repeat chorus)
Coda:
Carrie-Anne (Carrie-Anne) Carrie-Anne
