caroline i see you

caroline

i see you standing on the stairway

waiting for your bear there. handy on the landing

penny in my pocket

high enough to hold you. when i come back home to you tomorrow

you may well be angry

i'll for sure be hungry. meet me in the middle

make it melt like chocolate

be my little baby. i take you down by the water some december morning. take you from your family

leave them with their longing. take you by your hand

somewhere on the sand. caroline

i love you

though i'm late to say so

hesitate to tell you. what will be your answer some december morning?

standing on the stairway

caroline

i see you.
