Caroline - Banfi
Written by:Joe Banfi/Aaron Graham
Lying here in bed
With things we never said
You are always the first to sleep
I whisper my goodbye
To all the happy lights
Wrapped around our ugly tree
Come sunrise your doll eyes
Will frown up my footprints in the snow
Come New Year you know dear
I lead you down a short line
And I'm so sorry Caroline
The more you became my home
The more I was meant to let you go
We lost our fight for time
And I'm so sorry Caroline
I try not to worry
But I I wish I could stay and hold you now
We lost our fight for time for life
Something that never came true
For me and you
December 85
Grandchildren arrive
Pride can be a lovely feast
Everything I've missed
Reminds you of that Christmas Eve
When life was caving in
Come sundown this old town
Looks a bit like the place we fall in love
Come New Year you'll know dear
I lead you down a short line
And I'm so sorry Caroline
The more you became my home
The more I was meant to let you go
We lost our fight for time
And I'm so sorry Caroline
I try not to worry
But I I wish I could stay and hold you now
We lost our fight for time for life
And something that never came true
For me and you
Come dry light this long ride
Is moving throughout the afterglow
Come New Year you'll be here
With me on this short line
And I'm still sorry Caroline
The more you became my home
The more I was meant to let you go
We lost our fight for time
And I'm so sorry Caroline
I try not to worry
But I I wish I could stay and hold you now
We lost our fight for time for life
Something that never came true
For me and you
