Caroline

It's been countless days since last you wrote
cnd countless more since last we spoke
But now that's all that remains
The letters that make up your name
cnd I used to see every line that crossed
Your face but now the lines are lost
In stories told and I've grown old
Let me read again
The letters that you sent
Caroline wrote to me every day of that July
But now that's all I have left
Just thirty-one pages of Caroline
I waited all that time for you
To write me back to write a new
Verse of our love but it never came
Just hope my Caroline was safe
cnd just as I had always feared
Your precious words they disappeared
In to my mind as I went blind
Let me read again
The letters that you sent
Caroline wrote to me every day of that July
But now that's all I have left
Just thirty-one pages of Caroline
To pick them up might cut my hands
cnd blind me
Let me read again
The letters that she sent
