We took the test
and we came out clean
and you got drunk
and I got mean
Then I gave up
and you did too
but we do what we have to do
Oh Caroline,
you blew a fuse
I make amends
You make em too
and I realize what life to choose
I live alone
what could I do
The money went
and so did you
and I realize what life to choose
And I still feel safe
and I know that you'd say
I can't commit to anything
I'm way too settled down
I can't let go of anything
that doesn't stick around
and I will pray
and I will sing
to be a part of anything
Then I'll give up
and you will too
but we do what we have to do
and we came out clean
and you got drunk
and I got mean
Then I gave up
and you did too
but we do what we have to do
Oh Caroline,
you blew a fuse
I make amends
You make em too
and I realize what life to choose
I live alone
what could I do
The money went
and so did you
and I realize what life to choose
And I still feel safe
and I know that you'd say
I can't commit to anything
I'm way too settled down
I can't let go of anything
that doesn't stick around
and I will pray
and I will sing
to be a part of anything
Then I'll give up
and you will too
but we do what we have to do
