lyrics

There's a darkness speaking to an old broken down chevy,
and a line that gets crossed when no one is listening,
and your in the backseat with your head in your hands,
moving your lips to the radio as the sun sets
and I've been counting my cousins
and my friends that are missin'
the years that keep rolling and the broken transmissions,
and the wasted summers, and the broken boards
all the songs I meant to write, but I never found the words

Caroline make sure you leave your light on tonight,
Cause I'm coming over, and I'm through playing nice
don't act your age, don't act so tough
because I know you better than you know yourself.

And I've been sleeping on the sidewalk for so long
that a bed just seems too cold to sleep in now,
and i remember you writing something on the frost on your windshield
but the snows all melted, and I'm done dreaming.

Caroline make sure you leave your light on tonight,
Cause I'm coming over, and I'm through playing nice
don't act your age, don't act so tough
because I know you better than you know yourself.
