New Song

A new song I'm writing, seemingly about nothing:

"Caroline the Queen"

I woke up spilling out
Into a chilly day, without much sense
I take all of my best-laid plans
And still feel like a mouse inside a man

I come through
The longest line to see you

Caroline
I hang on every word you say
Caroline
You are the Queen of my Cafe
You are the Dream inside my Day

You've got a certain way
Of transforming the words that leave your lips
Into full-blown liquid gold
That Strangers take with them in sips

I can't make due
With the other girls who replace you

Caroline
I hang on every word you say
Caroline
You are the Queen of my Cafe
You are the Dream inside my Day

Cuz lately mornings take hours
and Days take weeks
But it calms my head just to hear you speak
My drink order to me

(Solo)

Caroline
I hang on every word you say
Caroline
You are the Queen of my Cafe
You are the Dream inside my Day

And when I wake
It's you I see
And I will take
A piece of you with me
