lyrics

Kevin and Caroline

Kevin can't make it happen
'cause Caroline just won't let it
Kevin can't seem to please her for a minute
and if Kevin can't make her happy
a gentleman to the limit
a guy like me just might as well forget it

and outside by the road the cicadas and the toads
singing like it's all supposed to be
crashing trucks and cars
sinking holes and broken hearts
laid out like the gifts beneath the tree
the gifts beneath the tree

and Caroline far from common
such a beautiful woman
you think that she could let go for a moment
and Kevin has everything
a married man could dream
except for the life the little boy was given

and if there's smoke before the flame
the smoke comes back again
and blows out over everything you see
but just because it was doesn't mean it ever was
something that was never to be
never meant to be

and if Kevin can't make her happy
a gentleman to the limit
a guy like me just might as well forget it
