Caroline The Wrecking Ball Songtext / Lyric


O.A.R. - Caroline The Wrecking Ball Songtext


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 window

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



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
