Caroline

Well I hear you're driving someone else's car now
she said she 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
and I never wondered where you went,
I only wondered why, I wondered why

CHORUS
oh Caroline
oh Caroline
oh Caroline
oh 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'll ever know 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 Caroline
oh Caroline
oh
