"Caroline" lyrics

What a way to change an evening
Was my number hard to find?
You know I'd given up believing
But the song had somewhat lingered on my mind

It went la la la la la la la la la la la, something, something, Caroline

Caroline, you're like an ember
A rock that burst back into life
A song I only just remember
That goes oh something, something, Caroline

La la la la la la la la la la la, something, something, Caroline

Caroline, we are old now
I got married and I loved my wife
I have kids. They're good and grown now
All in all, I've been happy with my life

Oh, I was never really far from you, was I?
Something, something, Caroline

I'd like you not to call again
I'd like to keep you off my mind
You're the one who went away, Caroline
So the song was forgotten over time

It went la la la la la la la la la la la, something, something, Caroline
La la la la la la la la la la la la, something, something, Caroline
