"Carolina In My Mind"

In my mind, I'm gone to Carolina

Can't you see the sunshine?

Can't you just feel the moon shinin'?

Ain't it just like a friend of mine

To hit me from behind?

Yes, I'm gone to Carolina in my mind

Karen, she's a silver sun

You best walk her way and watch it shinin'

Watch her watch the mornin' come

A silver tear appearing now, I'm cryin', ain't I?

I'm going to Carolina in my mind

There ain't no doubt in no one's mind

That love's the finest thing around

Whisper somethin' soft and kind

And hey, babe the sky's on fire, I'm dyin' ain't I?

I'm going to Carolina in my mind

In my mind, I'm gone to Carolina

Can't you see the sunshine?

Can't you just feel the moon shinin'?

Ain't it just like a friend of mine

To hit me from behind?

Yes, I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind

Well, dark and silent late last night

I think I might have heard the highway calling

Geese in flight and dogs that bite

The signs, it might be omens

Say I'm goin', goin'

I'm gone to Carolina in my mind

With a holy host of others standin' around me

Still I'm on the dark side of the moon

And it seems like it goes on like this forever

You must forgive me

If I'm up and gone to Carolina in my mind

Well, in my mind, I'm gone to Carolina

Can't you see the sunshine?

Can't you just feel the moon shinin'?

Ain't it just like a friend of mine

To hit me from behind?

Yes, I'm gone to Carolina in my mind

Gone to Carolina in my mind

Then I'm gone to Carolina in my mind

Gone to Carolina in my mind

Gone, I'm gone, I'm gone

Say nice things about me

'Cause I'm gone south, gone

Got to carry on without me

I'm gone
