Carolina

[00:00.54] Oh, Carolina creeks

[00:04.79] running through my veins

[00:08.77] Lost I was born,

[00:10.90] lonesome I came

[00:13.02] Lonesome I'll always stay

[00:17.29] Carolina knows

[00:21.27] why, for years, I roam

[00:25.27] Free as these birds,

[00:27.42] light as whispers

[00:29.54] Carolina knows

[00:34.85] And you didn't see me here

[00:38.30] No, they never did see me here

[00:42.55] And she's in my dreams

[00:48.13] Into the mist,

[00:50.26] into the clouds

[00:53.44] Don't leave

[00:56.63] I make a fist,

[00:58.49] I'll make it count

[01:00.62] And there are places I will never, ever go

[01:08.85] And things that only Carolina will ever know

[01:31.70] Carolina stains,

[01:35.68] on the dress she left

[01:39.94] Indelible scars,

[01:42.07] pivotal marks

[01:44.20] Blue as the life she fled

[01:48.18] Carolina pines,

[01:52.43] won't you cover me?

[01:56.41] Hide me like robes,

[01:58.54] down the back road

[02:00.67] Muddy these webs we weave

[02:05.44] And you didn't see me here

[02:09.43] Oh, they never did see me

[02:13.68] And she's in my dreams

[02:19.26] Into the mist,

[02:21.38] into the clouds

[02:24.57] Don't leave

[02:28.02] I make a fist,

[02:29.35] I'll make it count

[02:31.49] And there are places I will never, ever go

[02:39.72] And things that only Carolina will ever know

[02:55.41] Oh...

[03:24.38] And you didn't see me here

[03:28.36] They never did see me here

[03:32.08] No, you didn't see me here

[03:36.35] They never saw me

[03:43.78] Oh, Carolina knows

[03:48.30] why for years they've said

[03:52.28] That I was guilty as sin,

[03:56.27] and sleep in a liar's bed

[04:00.52] But the sleep comes fast

[04:04.77] and I'll meet no ghosts

[04:08.75] It's between me,

[04:10.61] the sand, and the sea

[04:13.00] Carolina knows
