Sweet Caroline (Neil Diamond cover) Lyrics

Where it began , I can't begin to knowing
But then I know it's growing strong
Was in the spring
Then spring became the summer
Who'd have believed you'd come along
Hands , touching hands
Reaching out , touching me , touching you

Sweet Caroline
Good times never seemed so good
I'd be inclined
To believe they never would
So good , so good

Look at the night and it don't seem so lonely
We filled it up with only two
And when I hurt
Hurting runs off my shoulder
How can I hurt when I'm holding you ?
One , touching one
Reaching out , touching me touching you

Sweet Caroline
Good times never seemed so good
I'd be inclined
To believe they never would
So good , so good

Sweet Caroline
Good times never seemed so good

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This gorgeous song was written by Neil Diamond. And Elvis made it sound his own as always! He was a fab singer and performer! I remember growing up hearing Elvis around the house as my older brothers loved him. I only got to like Elvis in my early 20's when I discovered his gospel songs. I always found his songs and voice fun and pleasant, but I felt I discovered a new Elvis when I first heard his gospel songs, perhaps an Elvis I recognised more. In many artists I get confused, because I rarely get to feel who they really are when on stage.... I have to see them in interviews to get the real feeling of who they are. I like to feel people's spirits, that's something maybe odd in me, but that's how I can connect with people. If I don't, I move on.
