Carolina in the Pines
Whispers of Love in the Carolina Pines
Lyrics
She came to me, said she knew me
She approached me, claiming familiarity
Said she'd known me a long time
Asserting a long-standing acquaintance
And she spoke of being in love
Expressed feelings of love
With every mountain she had climbed
Relating it to conquering various challenges
And she talked of trails she'd walked up
Discussed paths she had traversed
Far above the timber line
Specifically, above the tree line in mountains
From that night on I knew I'd write a song
Decided to compose a song from that moment
With Carolina in the pines
The song would center around 'Carolina in the Pines'
There's a new moon on the fourteenth
Mentioned different phases of the moon
First quarter, the twenty first
Describing the lunar cycle: new moon on the 14th
And the full moon in the last week
Noted the full moon's impact on the earth
Brings a fullness to this earth
Emphasized the fullness it brings
There's no guesswork in the clockwork
Highlighted the precision in the world's workings
Of the world's heart or mind
Referenced the clockwork nature of the world's heart and mind
There are nights I only feel right
Expressed a sense of completeness, especially at night
With Carolina in the pines
Reiterated the importance of 'Carolina in the Pines'
When the frost shows on the windows
Described a scene of frost on windows
And the wood stove smokes and glows
Depicted a wood stove emitting smoke and warmth
As the fire grows we can warm ourselves
Suggested finding comfort by a fire, observing rainbows
Watching rainbows in the coals
Watching the colors in the embers
And we'll talk of trails we walked up
Returned to discussing paths walked above the tree line
Far above the timber line
Specifically, in the mountains
There are nights I only feel right
Reiterated the feeling of completeness at night
With Carolina in the pines
Emphasized the significance of 'Carolina in the Pines'
