lyrics

GOODBYE CAROLINE

Well I’m busted and broke I made friends with a rope but I don’t think I’m set to retire.
And I still think of you when there’s nothing left to do but throw one more coal at the fire.
I’d play you a tune but my e string broke and the chords aren’t so pretty down here.
I could tell you a joke but I forgot them all and my intentions might seem unclear.

And I knew I could see you laughing
I wish I’d heard you cry

So Goodbye
Yes goodbye
Goodbye
Caroline

The sheets are a mess and the pillows unkept I never liked sleeping alone.
I tried switching sides but it was much too high and I kept falling back in the hole.
And I find myself laying here with a lit cigarette and I’m wide a wake half of the time
And it ain’t hard to do when you’ve got nothing left to lose maybe I’ll sit up for a while

BRIDGE
CHORUS

All the kids are out back playing ball and jacks and they still think you ran to the store
What should I say it wouldn’t matter any way it’s hard to make sense from the floor
I found that old ring you’d been looking for and I set it on the stand by the bed
I cried last night in our swimming pool as the stars all appear to be dead

BRIDGE
CHORUS
