Caroline

I met her the first time at the outskirts of town

My hometown

She was talking like crazy without ever slowing down

Oh, please slow down

She was two years younger, but nine times as true

Always knew what to do

'Cept for dealing with people like me

Oh, Caroline

Please bring me back

Oh, Caroline

I want you to know

What you mean

To me

I still can remember

The way she used to sing out of key

Kill me

Sometimes, I start thinking

That I'd like to die

But only just for a while

So some girl would be sad

You just walked into heaven

Where a pedal steel is playing

'Til after 11

Just for me

Oh, Caroline

Please bring me back

Oh, Caroline

I want you to know

What you mean

To me
