Lyrics:

(by Neil Diamond)

Where it began, I can't begin to know when
But then I know it's growing strong
Oh, was in the spring,
And spring became the summer
Who'da believed you'd come along

Hands, touching hands, reaching out
Touching me, touching you
Oh, sweet Caroline
Good times never seemed so good
I've been inclined to believe they never would

But now I, I look at the night,
And it don't seem so lonely
We fill it up with only two, woah, oh, oh
And when I hurt,
Hurting runs off my shoulders
How can I hurt when holding you?

Oh, one, touching one, reaching out
Touching me, touching you
Oh, sweet Caroline
Good times never seemed so good
I've been inclined to believe they never would, never would, no

Sweet Caroline, good times never seemed so good,
Ohhh, sweet Caroline,
I believed they never would
Sweet Caroline
