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...
