Caroline! A Ghost!

Caroline! A Ghost! - David Vertesi

There's a ghost beside your bed Caroline

The way she chats is keeping me awake

And I tell her off but you say

You're sick of all my interventions

And I'd wake you up

But lately you've just been so tired

Well there's a ghost

But you sleep through it Caroline

She's mumbling about your youth

And all this time

I must admit there are some things

I've never gotten used to

Like how can you sleep so sound

How can you sleep so tight

Well if you were a small town girl

I wouldn't think twice

I'd take you home to momma

I'd make you my wife

But you're so downtown

You're living underground

You're living underground Cherie

You're living underground

And morning come and I explain to Caroline

About the ghost but she is not surprised

Yeah she comes and goes

It's just a part of me that's always been there

And I can't explain why I'm not afraid

I just grew tired of being so scared

If you were a small town girl

I wouldn't think twice

I'd take you home to momma

I'd make you my wife

But you're so downtown

You're living underground

You're living underground Cherie

Oh you're living underground

You're living underground

You're living underground

You're living underground
