However, Diamond's revelation about Caroline Kennedy being the inspiration for "Sweet Caroline" has also raised some questions. The song was released when the youthful daughter of President Kennedy was barely 12-years-old, which means when he penned the lyrics he would have seen a magazine photo of her when she was only 10 or 11. Considering the lyrics contain suggestions of physical intimacy (touchin' me/touchin' you) it makes the artist's confession sound a little creepy.

LOL Now it makes me wonder about the inspiration to Diamond's song "Girl, You'll Be a Woman Soon".
