"Caroline" lyrics

Said she was leavin', the rent's too high
She's thought it out and it's over
Said it don't matter, said she'll get by
Got somethin' together near Dover

Caroline, in all my life
I never fell for anyone like you
Caroline, in all that time
I thought you would never go away from me again

Said it was done with, she's paid her dues
She's tired of tryin' it my way
Said there's a note for me on the door
Leavin' her key and a week's pay

Caroline, in all my life
I never fell for anyone like you
(Don't you hear me cryin'?)
Caroline, in all that time
I thought you would never go away from me again

Caroline, sweet, sweet Caroline
Oh, my Caroline
Oh, oh, Caroline

"So then you're born and so then you die"
She said lookin' over my shoulder
"It doesn't matter much what I do
Wise men and fools just get older"

Caroline, in all my life
I never fell for anyone like you
(Don't you hear me cryin'?)
Caroline, in all that time
I thought you would never go away from me again
(Don't you hear me cryin'?)

Caroline, in all my life
I never fell for anyone like you
(Don't you hear me cryin'?)
