Carolina In My Mind lyrics by James Taylor
James TaylorCAROLINA IN MY MIND
In my mind I'm gone
to Carolina
Can't you see the sunshine
Can't you just feel
the moonshine
Maybe 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 shining
Watch her watch
the morning come
A silver tear appearing
now I'm crying ain't I gone
to Carolina in my mind
There ain't no doubt in no
one's mind that love's
the finest thing around
Whisper something
soft and kind
And hey babe,
the sky's on fire, I'm dying
Ain't I gone 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 moonshine
Maybe just like a friend of
mine to hit me from behind
Yes, I'm gone to
Carolina in my mind
Dark and silent late last night
I think I might have heard
the highway calling
Geese in flight
and dogs that bite
The signs that might
be omens say I'm
going, going, I'm gone
to Carolina in my mind
With a holy host of others
standing 'round 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
In my mind
I'm gone to Carolina
Can't you see the sunshine
Can't you just
feel the moonshine
Maybe 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
And 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, I'm gone
Got to carry on about me
I'm gone
Gone to
Carolina in my mind
