I can smell the pines sweet Carolina's on my mind
|
I still feel that mountain breeze whisperin' through the trees
|
Tears fell from her eyes I held her as we said goodbye
|
She knew I didn't want to go but here I am tonight alone
|
Dreaming Carolina dreams in Tennessee
|
And someday soon I'll have her here with me
|
Until then she knows I miss her and tonight I'll go to sleep
|
Dreaming Carolina dreams in Tennessee
|
|
The cotton mill shut down they laid off folks for miles around
|
I had to leave to find some work the hardest part was leaving her
|
Nashville Tennessee it'd be beautiful if she was with me
|
But alone it's just another place till I close my eyes and see her face
|
I'm dreaming Carolina dreams...
|
|
Though we're miles apart we're sharing the same moon
|
When it's shining on her it's shining on me too
|
[ strings ]
|
I'm dreaming Carolina dreams in Tennessee
|
And someday soon I'll have her here with me
|
I'm dreaming Carolina dreams Carolina dreams Carolina dreams
|
