Bright Caroline Lyrics

Me and Caroline were talking
Well that's just her name for now
Well I just sipped and starred and waited
She teared up and started out

I can hear the angels
As this little one laid to rest
All the burdens that were brought on wings
Violent skies that didn't care

Sweet Jesus where was Your light
The night that little girl was fighting for her life
I can only pray for the wick You left inside
Brighten Your child
Brighten sweet Caroline
Brighten Your child

So if you see the sun fading
Then you know that all is right
And if you hear the darkness weaping
Then you know Caroline is bright
Then you know Caroline is bright

Sunday's just like any day
And some day is in the past
When innoncent is shed like silence
From a gray sky pouring glass

Sweet Jesus where do you draw the line
the night that that little girl was fighting for her rights
I can only pray for the wick You left inside of Caroline
Burning the sun away
Burn bright sweet Caroline
Your smile is safe

I live for the sun light
I live for the day
Never look at the sunrise the same way

So if you see the sun fading
Then you know that all is right
If you hear the darkness weaping
Then you know Caroline is bright
Then you know Caroline is bright
Then you know sweet Caroline is bright

There is a strength for all days
There is a call on this moment
If I'd never met sweet caroline
I might never recognize the sunrise
