Caroline Avenue Lyrics by Tarkio

I Guess I Was Hoping for Something More

0

The things you said
Were they true?
‘Cause I haven't got a clue
And wouldn't know if they were not true
‘Cause I am here, paper doll
And I am waiting for your call
But I won't wait until tomorrow
So hard to mention
When you're in my shoes
But I'm tired of riding shotgun for you
As we glide down Caroline Avenue
Time will tell you
That you're thinking that you're right when you are wrong
And I'm thinking that this evening won't last long, no no
‘Cause I'm getting pretty tired of you waxing so inspired
‘Bout the lights down Caroline Avenue
Serves you right
To feel this way
To be so clinically deranged
And I won't stand for all of your bullshit
So take your time
‘Cause we've got time
Remember, what is yours is mine
Don't let it slide by the wayside
Reeling from the tension
It's all ending here
And I'm chasing shots of whiskey
With Everclear
As we glide down Caroline Avenue
Time will tell you
That you're thinking that you're right when you are wrong
And I'm thinking that this evening won't last long, no no
‘Cause I'm getting pretty tired of you waxing so inspired
‘Bout the lights down Caroline Avenue
And you're trying so hard
But it takes more than just flipping off traffic cops
To impress me
You underestimate me
Emptied out
Falling free
It will all catch up with me
And I am in control and patient
But I will wait ‘til you decide
It's all over, bar the tide
And I will stay behind ‘til you decide
Carry me ‘til daylight
When your wisdom fails
‘Til tomorrow finds me shoeless in jail
As we glide down Caroline Avenue
Time will tell you
That you're thinking that you're right when you are wrong
And I'm thinking that this evening won't last long, no no
‘Cause I'm getting pretty tired of you waxing so inspired
‘Bout the lights down Caroline Avenue
