There are two 80s groups called Alphaville 1) A German synthpop/-rock music group which gained popularity in the 1980s.

Caroline Lyrics

Alphaville

Caroline says
Are you really sure that you know me
I never met you before, can I trust you
But shes never cautious, no, never, will she ever learn
Wil she always send her dreams and poems to imaginary people
And shes tough, yes, real tough
Standing right in front of the revelation
All of the big city lights may shine on her eternally
And carolines eyes show feelings not from this world
And if some one asks her, where do you come from
She thinks for a while before she answers
I dont know, I really dont know
And she says, theres no destination on this spiral highway
I dont know, I really dont know
And she says, I can give you names but I can never give you answers
And she says, listen to the music of your soul
Follow where its telling you to go, follow in the footsteps of your soul
Listen to the music, dont you know, itll lead you where you what to be
Its playing there for you and me
Caroline says while looking at the polaroid in her hands
Isnt it strange to remember
And when shes out, she never locks the door, she is always like that
She could never ever cope with the real life of the ordinary people
And she says, hey, listen to this, I should be leaving here tomorrow
Its so cold in this city and theres not enough money in the streets
And carolines eyes show feelings not from this world
And if some one asks her
Where do you go to, she thinks for a while before she answers
I dont know...
