Horse Latitudes - O Caroline

September Songs (1990)

Newman plays the piano, Robbie plays upon the drums
And we'll try to make the music work, we'll try to have some fun
But I just can't help thinking that if you were here with me
I'd get all my thoughts in focus and play more excitingly

I love you still, Caroline
I want you still, Caroline
I need you still, Caroline

If you call this sentimental crap you'll make me mad
Because you know that I would not sing about some passing fad
And if my attempts at rhyming aren't convincing to your ears
Then memories betray you through the passing of the years

I love you still, Caroline
I want you still, Caroline
I need you still, Caroline
　
You must think it doubtful that I mean the words I sing
Or that all attempts to reach you this way could not mean a thing
But you must admit we both thought we stand man and wife
And that I could make you happy for the best part of your life

I love you still, Caroline
I want you still, Caroline
I need you still, Caroline
I love you still, Caroline
