Lyrics: Kirsty Maccoll. Caroline.

She called me up the other day
And left a message on my machine
She called to say you broke her heart
And she'd wondered if I'd seen you

I didn't know what to do
I never called her back
Oh, how can I break
The news like that

Now I don't want to see Caroline
Don't want to see her face
When she finds out you're mine
Can't look in her eyes
And tell her love is blind
Now, I don't want to see Caroline
I don't want to see Caroline

How can I want you so bad
She has to lose again
How could you walk out on her
And turn to her best friend

It was wrong from the start
I wish I'd turned you away
And my head said go
But my heart, my heart said stay

And now I don't want to see Caroline
Don't want to see her cry
When she knows you're mine
Can't look in those eyes
And tell her she'll be fine
Now I don't want to see Caroline
I don't want to see Caroline

I'm so ashamed of myself
That I still want you
What a terrible thing
For a friend to do

I think I've gone too far this time
I leapt across that thin blue line
God help this selfish heart of mine
Now I don't want to see Caroline
I can never face Caroline

Now I lie here with you
Can't get her out my head
Do you think she knows
That you share my bed

Well, I don't want to see Caroline
Don't want to see her face
When she finds out you're mine
How could a friend be so unkind

Well, I don't want to see Caroline
I don't want to see Caroline
I don't want to see Caroline
I don't want to see Caroline
