lyrics

Caroline, you've gone and confused my mind with the ways that you wander
Your family's not there for you now and alone you go under
I recall lonely nights talking until two about the ideas you wonder
Are out there still, waiting to be discovered
And how they all wait alone
Waiting to be called

Home ain't quite the same anymore
All the flowers are dead that once lead to your door
And now dollar bills shingle the shack in which you shave
And tho' the sun is still red it slaps coldly on your face
And I've done you wrong
With this song that does you wrong

So I color my hands in black and blue
And they train me to see the best light for you
But it does you wrong
Yeah it does you wrong
Cause the chords can't remind
And words can't try to hide
The simple mistake I think you make

Even your best man won't miss you like I do
