Caroline puts dylan on, she always sings along She gets the words all wrong She falls out of time but it sounds just fine Caroline says no one else could take my place She says it's my honest face and my simple heart And my constant mind Man i'm as fickle as a ten-cent knife I'm an anchorless vessel on the ocean of life And i'm walkin' away from caroline Caroline says that it ain't no good to shout She don't want to be drawn out She's a one-eyed witch in a world gone blind Caroline says no one else could understand How she's a woman and she's a man She's a gust of wind, she's a creepin' vine Man all i know is that life ain't fair And it's four in the morning and i just don't care And i'm walkin' away from caroline So i tell caroline i'm afraid to feel too much I say, though i'm cold to touch Still i burn inside and i just need time Caroline says that she don't mind the wait She says that it's only fate, and it's no one's fault And it's no one's crime And caroline swears, she says "i love you" Man i know she's lyin' cause i'm lyin', too And i'm walkin' away from caroline
