Carolyn
Love's Struggle: A Journey with Carolyn in the Arms of Reality
Lyrics
I can wait in the back or sit with you in the front
I am willing to be in the background or be by your side prominently.
You can live like a queen
You have the opportunity to live a luxurious life.
I'll work in the heat like a grunt
I am willing to work hard, even in challenging conditions.
You can make a big deal out of playing pretend
You can choose to make a significant issue out of pretending or playing a role.
Carolyn
Direct address to someone named Carolyn, indicating a personal connection or relationship.
I don't care what you did or who you did it for
I don't judge or mind what you've done or who it was for.
You can take what you want
You have the freedom to take what you desire.
I'll find new ways to make more
Regardless, I will find new ways to achieve success or prosperity.
And things don't have to go according to plan
Flexibility in accepting that plans may not unfold as expected.
Carolyn
Reiteration of the direct address to Carolyn.
When I hold you in my arms
Describing a lack of emotional response when physically close to Carolyn.
I don't feel a thing
Reaffirmation of emotional detachment while holding Carolyn.
When I hold you in my arms
Continuation of the lack of emotional connection when in close physical contact.
My oh my, Carolyn
An exclamation expressing surprise or admiration for Carolyn.
You know the world is just as tough as it seems
Acknowledgment that the world is challenging and harsh.
And you look almost like the girl of my dreams
Comparing Carolyn to an idealized version of a dream girl.
But only fools make comparisons
Caution against making comparisons, suggesting it's unwise or futile.
Carolyn
Reiteration of addressing Carolyn and emphasizing the folly of comparisons.
When I hold you in my arms
Repeating the lack of emotional response when physically close to Carolyn.
I don't feel a thing
Restating emotional detachment while holding Carolyn.
When I hold you in my arms
Continuing the theme of emotional disconnection in close physical proximity.
My oh my, Carolyn
Reiterating the surprise or admiration for Carolyn.
