Caroline from Girls by The Get Down Boys

i once was lost at sea, no one to comfort me
just me and this faded photograph
my time, i sensed, was near to face my greatest fear
i knew i had to have the last laugh

every now and then i make the same mistake again
i've bit off more than i can chew
caroline, now what am i supposed to do?

i'm waiting for the next big wave
to carry me away
i'm riding on a westbound train
i'm moving on today
no matter what i'll do i'll still be in love with you anyway
i'm waiting for the next big wave
to carry me away

i once was high aloft a snowy mountain top
the wind was howling back at me
i vowed to rest no more and shook the mountain's core
it took me for a wild ride indeed

every now and then i make the same mistake again
i've bit off more than i can chew
caroline, now what am i supposed to do?

i'm waiting for the next big wave
to carry me away
i'm riding on a westbound train
i'm moving on today
no matter what i'll do i'll still be in love with you anyway
i'm waiting for the next big wave
to carry me away
