The summer swept Chicago
Left us with a little bit of rain.
We are trembling, glistening,
Listening to the rumble of the elevated train.
And I have never been afraid
Of opening myself up to a dream.
And now you`ve filled me like a bubble
And the trouble is I`m bursting at the seams.
I can`t leave you, Carolyn.
It has never been so quiet
My heart will never beat this loud again.
I can`t leave you, Carolyn.
And walk back out amongst the strangers,
Strangers who`ve grown closer than my friends.
They grow closer than my friends.
A square of sunlight on the bedspread
And I stagger through the silence `til you wake.
We kiss away the morning,
Wishing that the morning lasted all day.
Well I have never been afraid
Of opening myself up to a girl.
But now I`ve let you in
You begin to shake my precarious world.
I can`t leave you, Carolyn.
It has never been so quiet
My heart will never beat this loud again.
I can`t leave you, Carolyn.
I walk back out amongst the strangers,
Strangers who`ve grown closer than my friends.
Sometimes love can be so
Sometimes love can be so lonely.
Sometimes love can be so
Sometimes love leaves you alone.
(Carolyn)
I can`t leave you, (Carolyn)
I can`t leave you, (Carolyn)
I can`t leave you, (Carolyn)
I can`t leave you, (Carolyn)
I don`t ever want to be lonely, lonely (Carolyn)
I don`t ever want to be lonely, lonely (Carolyn)
I don`t ever want to be lonely, lonely (Carolyn)
I don`t ever want to be lonely, lonely (Carolyn)
(Carolyn)
(Carolyn)
