Got your eyes open, but you cannot see |
|
Got what you want, do you got what you need? |
|
The one day you see something you cannot bear |
|
Telling you girl, yes you better beware |
|
Her papa loved her so much you could see |
|
Loved her too much if you know what I mean |
|
So, she left home young, Yeah she moved town to town |
|
Looking for love that she never found |
|
She played it hard and yes she played it rough |
|
Made her feel safe and it made her feel tough |
|
And rock by rock she built those walls everyday |
|
Built herself a tower so far away |
|
And from up high in that castle |
|
She knew no one could get too close to touch |
|
And if life and death were such a game |
|
Why did they all make such a fuss? |
|
And if birds could fly high over their troubles |
|
She gonna find some of her own wings and fly |
|
And no one could convince or pay her double |
|
Or tell her she was too young to die |
|
Oh Caroline, Caroline |
