Caroline, you know it's true that I love you with all my heart.
Though you're gone and away from me I still feel that we haven't part.
Your voice is still in my head. You come to me in the dreams of my bed
and I know your father gave you those sad eyes
It's not your fault, Caroline.
I'll keep my blood in my veins, in-between the barriers of my skin.
Where it remains, where it should always remain. Calm and sane is my blood with you in my heart.
I hear it's cold between heaven and earth from what my grandfathers mother said to him
I hope one day I'll be there myself and make it all the way to hear those bells
with you in my heart.
Tell me if I'm doing fine.
Tell me if I'm doing right.
Because my heart belongs to you.
