Intro

The things you said - were they true?

 'Cos I haven't got a clue

 And wouldn't know, if they were not true

'Cos I am here paper doll

 I am waiting for your call

 But I won't wait until tomorrow

So hard to mention

 When you're in my [shoes]

 But I'm tired of riding shotgun for you

 As we light down Caroline Avenue

Time will tell you that you're

Thinking that you're right when you are wrong

 And I'm thinking that this evening won't last

Long, no no. 'Cos I'm getting pretty tired

 Of you waxing so inspired

 'Bout the lights down Caroline Avenue

Repeat Intro

Serves you right, to feel this way

Be so clinically deranged

But I won't stand for all your bullshit

So take your time, cos we've got time

Remember what is yours is mine

Don't let it slide by the way-side

Reeling from the tension

It's all ending here

And I'm chasing shots of whiskey with Everclear

Repeat Chorus

And you're trying so hard

But it takes more than just

Flipping off traffic cops to impress me

Repeat Intro

(You underestimate me)

Emptied out, fallen free

It will catch up with me

And I'm [?] impatient

But I will wait, if you decide

It's all over bar the tide

And I will stay behind 'till you decide

Carry me till daylight

With your wisdom [fair?]

Till tomorrow finds me shoeless in jail

Repeat Chorus
