Caroline No

	Rebounding from a couple of less-than-scintillating tracks, the Pet Sounds album concludes with "Caroline No", a beautiful melancholy song where again Brian Wilson's sensitive lyric hits home. The ending to this song, with the train whistle and Brian's dogs barking, is startling and memorable.	Bruce Beatlefan	June 6, 2008

Lyrics

Where did your long hair go
Where is the girl I used to know
How could you lose that happy glow
Oh, Caroline no

Who took that look away
I remember how you used to say
You'd never change, but that's not true
Oh, Caroline you

Break my heart
I want to go and cry
It's so sad to watch a sweet thing die
Oh, Caroline why

Could I ever find in you again
Things that made me love you so much then
Could we ever bring 'em back once they have gone
Oh, Caroline no
