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.
