all these tunes remind me of the beach boys' caroline no. not about summer's end explicitly but might as well be considering the band, the mournful theme of fleeting youth, and the surf bass buried in the mix.



Where did your long hair go?
Where is the girl I used to know?
How could you lose that happy glow?

Oh, Caroline, no...

Who took that look away?
I remember how you used to say
You'd never change, but that's not true.

Oh, Caroline, you break my heart.
I wanna go and cry.
It's so sad to watch a sweet thing die.

Oh, Caroline, why?

Could I ever find in you again,
Things that made me love you so much then?
Could we ever bring 'em back, once they have gone?

Oh, Caroline, no.
