Caroline The Wrecking Ball Lyrics - The Rockville - O.a.r. (of A Revolution)

There something about the way we fall apart 

Like everything that matters, didn't matter from the start 

Everyone around us played a part 

Wrecking ball came crashing through the windows 

Structures that we carry in our heart 

And all I ever asked of you 

Is just to be the woman that you wanted to 

It's all I ever asked 

Just outside the city on a Sunday last July 

The girl's name was Brandy but we called her Caroline 

No one even knew her history 

Said she came from somewhere in the southland 

Feels like she was coming straight for me 

I was playing nine ball with two guys I knew from work 

This junkie local starts acting like a jerk 

Saw him put his hand up Brandy's skirt 

And I don't know what happened next 

In retrospect I lost my head and think I went berserk 

By the time they pulled me off him I was almost coming to 

Bleeding at the knuckles, she says nice to meet you 

And the cops will probably be here in a flash 

We hailed a cab we both got in 

And watched that taxi driver slam his foot down on the gas 

Must be a fool like me to be with a fool like you 

Oh oh oh, must be a fool like me to be with a fool like you 

But I ain't nobody's fool 

Next few months we spent a lot of time up in the room 

Laughed a lot, drank a lot, yeah we tried to shoot the moon 

And in the morning time she'd always disappear 

I agreed, I'd never ask her questions 

With the chance of an answer I don't wanna hear 

One morning, she crying on the stoop outside my place 

She tryin' to hide it, there's sadness on her face 

Oh is there anything I can do? 

She said perhaps if you would drop this package off 

I would hate to inconvenience you 

Well they say a suckers born, every sixty seconds time 

I knew I shouldn't do it, but I put it from my mind 

And, oh if you knew that gal of mine 

You'd understand, I got no hand in making that decision 

Reason got no rhyme 

Must be a fool like me to be with a fool like you 

Oh oh oh, must be a fool like me to be with a fool like you 

But I ain't nobody's fool 

Nobody's fool no more 

I knocked at the address that she gave waited for a few 

Looked inside the window and I saw a kid or two 

Next thing I knew a burner in my face 

There's just some shit you never can erase 

Both my hands were shaking as the sun began to rise 

I got back to my house, she was gone I'm not surprised 

You can never ground a bird that needs to fly 

Oh I got into that urge to move 

Thanks to you, my wrecking ball Caroline 

Must be a fool like me to be with a fool like you 

Oh oh oh, must be a fool like me to be with a fool like you 

Oh oh oh, must be a fool like me to be with you 

Oh oh oh, must be a fool like me to be with you 

But I ain't nobody's fool 

Nobody's fool no more 

No more
