Caroline
Brings me coffee and cigarettes
Remedies to help forget how the
Words would rise to the ceiling like smoke rings
Never meaning anything
Water rise
But nothing seems to make much sense
Just when I feel I can't go
She's a friend of mine
She doesn't need a valentine
Or pretty talk about the sunshine
Or silver lies
She penetrates the thin disguise
We listen to the night outside
She makes her plans
Why'd I try and understand?
Just when I feel
Just when I feel I can't go
From her room
We watch the violent colors die
Listen to the traffic outside
She takes her time while people rush off nowhere fast
Caroline can only laugh
Caroline
Caroline can only laugh
Just when I feel I can't go
Well, her shared belief
Falls in pieces on the ground
Doesn't seem to make a sound
But it scatters like our darkest ghost
I try to sweep the fragments up
While she holds the cards
She doesn't have to try so hard
But she doesn't have to try so hard
Just when I feel
Just when I feel I can't go
Just when I feel
Just when I feel I can't go
Just when I feel I can't go
