Foreman, Jon - Caroline Lyrics






Caroline
The middle finger queen of the never mind
It’s been a little while since the second time
I knew that you’d never come home
Caroline
You were just a child in the fire line
You were just a kid when your momma died
And daddy couldn’t make it alone

And I wonder out loud
Where your heart is now
Where your heart is now
Where your heart is now
Caroline

Now and then, you’re in the magazines
The tabloid rags and the trash machines
They’re spitting on the image of the memories
Of the girl with her pigtails flying
I had a dream that you were calling home
Stranded in a storm on a payphone
And all that you were getting was a dial tone
With no one on the end of the line

And I wonder out loud
Where your heart is now
Where your heart is now
Where your heart is now
Caroline

They say your heart is where your treasure is
But maybe there’s another way to measure this
Cause it feels like what you find your pleasure in
Are the things that are bringing you down
Yeah, and every now and then
I wonder if you’ll ever make it home again
Back to the childhood innocence
Of the girl on her old playground

And I wonder out loud
Where your heart is now
Where your heart is now
Where your heart is now
Caroline

  22. C.... C....

  23. k.... b....

    Amazing song!

  24. D.... S....

    What does Caroline signify? Explain this song to me someone please
    I just haven't figured this song out yet still

    D.... S....

    Drew Its about a girl who lost her innocence and became corrupt by the way of the world. You wonder if those people will ever make it home again. Home being the state of mind we were created to live in and the state of mind we were born in. Peace, tranquility, and love. A question I think everybody asks themselves is where their heart is. When you grow up you lose yourself and become reprobate and deprived along with all the others and forget where your heart is. Because your heart is deliberately suppressed and naturally buried beneath the layers of bad experiences which contradict the feelings we have of peace, tranquility and love.
    So eventually we conform our feelings to the evidence of reality and accept reality as is and usually give up hope. But Jesus has reserved a place for us separate from the bad things of the world. In this place He has reserved for us there is no platform for evil to stand. In Christ all things are made whole. There will be no need for sunlight, for the Glory of the Lord will be the light.
    This song talks about 1 girl but this can be applied to anyone. Hope this helps.

  25. V.... C....

  28. R.... T....

    who is the girl on the video ?

  29. L.... M....

    Jon Foreman, you have helped so many people deal with their emotions in a godly, wise, and beautiful way. For basically every strong emotion I face you have written a song that expresses exactly how I feel. Although we live in very different places and circumstances, your music is deeply relevant. Keep writing music because I will always want to listen to your poetry.

  30. R.... P....

    " HOPE THIS GET'S TO JON ". I have a Top Ten Greatest Song's list, & You Made It. Hard to do, 99% are Classic's. Many didn't have ton's of hit's, but Had One Song. Yours was only duet, with (Mandy Moore). SOMEDAY WE'LL KNOW. My favorite singer, a Superstar, didn't make it. Yours also only Cover Song. Your VOCAL'S & EMOTION, were AWESOME ! Thanks

  31. D.... M....

    His voice is so P E R F E C T Arghh! and the lyrics and just music ALWAYS gets to me like crazy... Its so weird like mixed emotions, super emotional yet sometimes cheery and catchy sing song sing along... Always a beautiful storyline within the song. Im always gonna support this guy absolute fan of Jon.

  45. I.... G....

    That's amazing. Caroline? Who is she?

  46. R.... L....

    Correct me if I'm wrong but is this song about "Caroline's" choices? This is a beautiful song that speaks to me about a girl that someone loves but has to let her go because they're unequally yoked.

  47. A.... L....

    absolutely beautiful

  48. S.... R....

    AWSUM SONG

    middle finger queen of the never mind..... what does that mean?

    D.... ....

    Danny it means she likes to flip people off and say never mind all the time, so like kinda bad lol

  52. B.... ....

    Funny how in 2015 when I thought MTV was dead, I found this gem.
    I should be burned for not realizing here is the frontman of Switchfoot.
    I'm glad. 'Where your heart is now ..."

  53. K.... ....

    Reminds me of my lovely cousin. It's as if he's telling her story...I just don't know if I should share it with her....might make her cry.... <3 beautiful song & video!

  54. J.... B....

    There's not much (actually anything) that Jon Foreman sings that I don't love. So good.

  73. J.... S....

    I am inexplicably intrigued by this video. A unique masterpiece for sure!

  74. L.... G....

    Mister Jon Foreman! Turning the simple words into wonderful truths

  75. l.... ....

    I love it Jon, you will always be my mentor your music is a bandaid for my soul.

  76. R.... Y....

    Great quality. Who is Caroline?

    R.... Y....

    @Chris Josey She was the girl in the video, but not the one that the song was based on.

    R.... Y....

    @Christian Mclain How do you know that's his wife? If I may ask. I mean, she kind of relates to "Southbound Train" with the way he described a girl in the song. So the woman in this music video should be his wife?

    R.... Y....

    +Allan Baguinon She's the one who got away.

    R.... Y....

    +Allan Baguinon No, yesterday he told us the actors name was also Caroline. Not his wife. He doesn't mention her much in order to keep her out of the whole "celebrity" stuff.

    R.... Y....

    +Christian Mclain The song was based on a friend of Jon's. Her name isn't Caroline though, he changed the name.

  77. I.... H....

    Good job Jon, God bless you.

  78. B.... ....

    I mean, the video makes no sense at all, but at least the song is still good.

    B.... ....

    Yeah I'm kinda with you there. The ending is what has me confused, but definitely interesting imagery and it's a great song.

  79. C.... M....

    Time lapses are the best! Great job, Jon, it's beautiful :)

  80. J.... N....

    This is amazing!! Thank you Jon for always finding the right words

  81. M.... H....

    So beautiful!

  82. E.... C....

    This song always gives me goosebumps. Musically and lyrically it's simply wonderful, and then I have the memories of hearing you play it for us on release day at Edinburgh, because the other guys had learnt it for you. What a magical moment that was! Thank you for blessing us with your music, Jon! And thank you for making a great video to go with it :)

    E.... C....

    This video literally made me a fan overnight.

    E.... C....
