Caroline - Arlo Parks
Lyrics by:Anais Marinho
Composed by:Gianluca Buccellati/Anais Marinho
I was waiting for the bus one day
Watched a fight between a artsy couple escalate
Strawberry cheeks flushed with defeated rage
Then he spilled his coffee as he frantically explained
Maybe if you took a breath
You would hear me when I talk to you
Threw her necklace in his face
Eyes so bright with disappointment
Saw something inside her break
Everybody knows the feeling
Suddenly he started screaming
Caroline
I swear to God I tried
I swear to God I tried
Caroline
I swear to God I tried
I swear to God I tried
I swear to God I tried
Swear to God I tried
Ripped the hem of her skirt as she ran
Panicking and weaving through the crowds on oxford street
Watched his world dissolve in his hands
Tried to roll a blunt then put his head between his knees
Oh
Maybe if she took a breath
She would know I did it all for her
Agony and hints of sage
Her eyes blind with disappointment now
Couldn't recognize her face
Shards of glass live in this feeling
Have to somehow stop her leaving
Caroline
I swear to God I tried
I swear to God I tried
Caroline
I swear to God I tried
I swear to God I tried
Caroline
I swear to God I tried
I swear to God I tried
Caroline
I swear to God I tried
I swear to God I tried
I swear to God I tried
Swear to God I tried
I swear to God I tried
Swear to God I tried
