Caroline, I see you
Standing on the stairway,
Waiting for your bear there.
Handy on the landing,
Penny in my pocket,
High enough to hold you.

When I come back home
To you tomorrow,
You may well be angry,
I'll for sure be hungry.
Meet me in the middle,
Make it melt like chocolate,
Be my little baby.

I take you down by the water
Some December morning.
Take you from your family,
Leave them with their longing.
Take you by your hand,
Somewhere on the sand.

Caroline, I love you,
Though I'm late to say so,
Hesitate to tell you.
What will be your answer
Some December morning?
Standing on the stairway,
Caroline, I see you.
