Caroline - Concrete Blonde

I hear you’re driving

Someone else’s car now…

She said you came and

Took your stuff away —

All the poetry, and the trunk

You kept your life in —

I knew that it would

Come to that someday…

Like a sad hallucination

When I opened up my eyes

The train had passed the station

And you were trapped inside…

Yet I never wonder where you went

I only wonder why

I wonder why…

Oh Caroline

Oh, whoa-oh Caroline

Oh, oh Caroline

Whoa whoa whoa, Caroline

Well I hear you’re using someone else’s number;

She said she saw you in the store today

It doesn’t matter whose address

You’re listed under

I only know they’ll never make you stay

Like a memory in motion

You were only passing through…

That is all you’ve ever known of life

That’s all you’ll ever do

There’s a dream I have where I sail away;

Looking back I wave at you

And I wave goodbye…

Oh Caroline

Oh, oh whoa oh, Caroline

Oh, oh Caroline

Oh

In another life I see you

As an angel flying high

And the hands of time will free you —

You will cast your chains aside —

And the dawn will come and kiss away

Every tear that’s ever fallen

From your eyes…

Behind those eyes

I wonder

Oh, Caroline… oh, oh, oh…

Oh, oh… Caroline…

Sometimes I wonder…

Oh… Caroline

Sometimes I

Sometimes I wonder…
