Sweet Caroline

An infectious track from 1969, perfect for group sing-alongs at American gatherings.

Where it began, I can’t begin to knowing
But then I know it’s growing strong

Was in the spring, and spring became the summer
Who’d have believed you’d come along?

Hands, touching hands
Reaching out, touching me, touching you

Chorus

Sweet Caroline
Good times never seemed so good

I’ve been inclined
To believe they never would

But now I look at the night
And it don’t seem so lonely

We fill it up with only two

And when I hurt, hurting runs off my shoulders
How can I hurt when holding you?

Warm, touching warm
Reaching out, touching me, touching you

Chorus

Sweet Caroline
Good times never seemed so good

I’ve been inclined
To believe they never would

Oh no, no

Sweet Caroline
Good times never seemed so good

Sweet Caroline
I believe they never could

Sweet Caroline
Good times never seemed so good
