Caroline

I woke up long after dawn Twenty years had come and gone I know when it changed for me A day in June you came to me I've seen through someone else's eyes With nothin' on the other side Every motel, every town Pieces scattered all around Promises that I can't be Someone's heart that I can't keep Days so long I couldn't speak Roads so rocky I can't sleep I've seen things so beautiful All around this broken world That pale in comparison to you Caroline, I'm on my way back home to you Imagine what I'm goin' through Without you by my side It's been a long, long time Oh, won't you say a prayer for me I hope you will remember me You're always on my mind I have seen the canyon lands Crooked lines like in your hands You'd swear the earth was split in two I wouldn't lie, I promise you That I have seen it, you will too You could not believe if not for Photographs I took for you, Caroline They've built towers to the sky It hurts sometimes to watch them try They run themselves into the ground But I know you will love them And their city lights and city sounds There's beauty in the struggle Anytime I feel it get me down I see you smiling Caroline, I'm on my way back home to you Can't imagine what I'm goin' through Without you by my side It's been a long, long time Oh won't you say a prayer for me I hope you will remember me You're always on my mind My Caroline (Oh my Caroline) Now I have seen things in the sky Stars and lights and birds and I I've been rocky mountain high And told them all about you Because you are still the only thing That constantly amazes me I love the road and I've been blessed But I love you best Caroline, I'm on my way back home to you Can't imagine what I'm goin' through Without you by my side It's been a long, long time Oh won't you say a prayer for me I hope you will remember me You're always on my mind You were always on my mind My Caroline (Oh my Caroline)
