Amber slipped away last night Gin-soaked in the hospital And with everything we went through with that last year That is a serious kick in the balls None of us need this Least of all young Caroline Child, I'd be lying if I told you I thought that everything would be fine Caroline I know things are desperate Things will get better in the end Because every step you take forward is another step you'll never have to take again You know her parents built her up But then they let her fall aside Now she has her scars on her legs that she won't explain From when she disappeared that night Said she's not a little girl any more Her hands, they don't need holding much But the child that I've known since the day she was born is always going to need some human touch
Caroline I know things are desperate Things will get better in the end And every step you take forward is another step you'll never have to take again And every step you take forward is another step you'll never have to take again It tears me apart To remember your love It tears me in half To remember your love Caroline I know things are desperate Things will get better in the end But every step you take forward is another step you'll never have to take again But every step you take forward is another step you'll never have to take again Every step you take forward is another step you never have to take again Every step you take forward is another step you never have to take again Every step you take forward is another step you never have to take again
