**** <br>"Oh, Carolina creeks running through my veins<br>Lost I was born, lonesome I came<br>Lonesome I'll always stay<br>Carolina knows why, for years, I roam<br>Free as these birds, light as whispers<br>Carolina knows<br><br>And you didn't see me here<br>No, they never did see me here<br>And she's in my dreams<br><br>Into the mist, into the clouds<br>Don't leave<br>I make a fist, I'll make it count<br>And there are places I will never, ever go<br>And things that only Carolina will ever know<br><br>Carolina stains on the dress she left<br>Indelible scars, pivotal marks<br>Blue as the life she fled<br>Carolina pines, won't you cover me?<br>Hide me like robes down the back road<br>Muddy these webs we weave<br><br>And you didn't see me here<br>Oh, they never did see me<br>And she's in my dreams<br><br>Into the mist, into the clouds<br>Don't leave<br>I make a fist, I'll make it count<br>And there are places I will never, ever go<br>And things that only Carolina will ever know<br><br>And you didn't see me here<br>They never did see me here<br>No, you didn't see me here<br>They never saw me<br><br>Oh, Carolina knows why for years they've said<br>That I was guilty as sin and sleep in a liar's bed<br>But the sleep comes fast and I'll meet no ghosts<br>It's between me, the sand, and the sea<br>Carolina knows"<br><br>⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ |
