Caroline, Caroline
I never could leave you to struggle
Hold the line, hold the line
I’ll be there on the double
In time, in time
Everyone does see trouble
[Chorus]
And you don’t need to know why when you cry
You don’t need to know why
You don’t need to know why when you cry
[Verse 2]
Violet’s eyes, Violet plays
Going back home to the Great Lakes
Where the cattail sways
With the lonesome loon
Riding that train in late June
[Chorus]
With the windows wide by my side
With the windows wide
With the windows wide by my side
[Verse 3]
And the clusters fell, like an empty bell
Meteor shower at the motel
Where the empty space is a saving grace
Making good time and doing well
Still the question sings, like Saturn’s rings
Maybe she knows and she won’t tell
[Chorus]
But you don’t need to know why when you cry
You don’t need to know why
You don’t need to know why when you cry
[Verse 4]
And I find you there in your country flair
Middle of the river in a lawn chair
With your wrinkled hands and your silver hair
Leaving here soon and you know where
To where the cattail sways with the lonesome loon
You’ll be riding that train in late June
[Chorus]
With the windows wide by your side
With the windows wide
With the windows wide by your side
You don’t need to know why
You don’t need to know why when you cry
[Verse 1] Caroline, Caroline I never could leave you to struggle Hold the line, hold the line I’ll be there on the double In time, in time Everyone does see trouble [Chorus] And you don’t need to know why when you cry You don’t need to know why You don’t need to know why when you cry [Verse 2] Violet’s eyes, Violet plays Going back home to the Great Lakes Where the cattail sways With the lonesome loon Riding that train in late June [Chorus] With the windows wide by my side With the windows wide With the windows wide by my side [Verse 3] And the clusters fell, like an empty bell Meteor shower at the motel Where the empty space is a saving grace Making good time and doing well Still the question sings, like Saturn’s rings Maybe she knows and she won’t tell [Chorus] But you don’t need to know why when you cry You don’t need to know why You don’t need to know why when you cry [Verse 4] And I find you there in your country flair Middle of the river in a lawn chair With your wrinkled hands and your silver hair Leaving here soon and you know where To where the cattail sways with the lonesome loon You’ll be riding that train in late June [Chorus] With the windows wide by your side With the windows wide With the windows wide by your side You don’t need to know why You don’t need to know why when you cry Explain Request ×
