Caroline The Wrecking Ball O.A.R

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
