alright caroline

tell the truth for once just this time

knowing we've been through it

baby's eyes look just like mine

we've both been through it

tell the truth for once just this time

i didn't know how much you

would take from me

when you kiss this little girl around

give me back mine

didn't know what we made laying down

one more time

tell the truth for once just this time

it just seems that things

it could've been different

i can't change it

so alright caroline

i won't take nothing from you

alright caroline

even if it means the truth

alright

when you teach this little girl to walk

another will remind

there's a price to pay for a place safe to hide

from inside

the truth for once just this time

it seems that things

they could've been different

both of us

both of us

alright caroline

i won't take nothing from you

alright caroline

even if it means the truth

alright

time moves faster today

oh

let's not speak of it

some things you cannot mend

and i'm watching her sleep

and it's beautiful

tell me when i won't be seeing you again

you didn't even ask me

if it was alright

alright caroline

even if it means the truth

alright caroline

alright

to understand you

i feel you

to claim to understand you

but i feel you

it's gonna take a long time

to grow young again

yeah

i know

it's gonna take a long time

to grow young again

i know

it's gonna take a long

it was alright

to grow young again

it was all right

if it was alright

if it was alright
