Carolina Dreams
Carolina Dreams: A Heartfelt Journey of Love and Longing
Lyrics
I can smell the pines sweet Carolina's on my mind
I am reminded of the pleasant aroma of pine trees, and thoughts of North Carolina occupy my mind.
I still feel that mountain breeze whisperin' through the trees
I still sense the cool mountain breeze gently rustling through the trees.
Tears fell from her eyes I held her as we said goodbye
Tears rolled down her cheeks as we bid farewell.
She knew I didn't want to go but here I am tonight alone
She understood that I didn't want to leave, and now I find myself alone tonight.
Dreaming Carolina dreams in Tennessee
I am envisioning dreams related to North Carolina while in Tennessee.
And someday soon I'll have her here with me
At some point in the future, I hope to have her physically present with me.
Until then she knows I miss her and tonight I'll go to sleep
Until then, she is aware of my longing for her, and tonight I will go to sleep.
Dreaming Carolina dreams in Tennessee
I continue to have dreams about North Carolina while in Tennessee.
The cotton mill shut down they laid off folks for miles around
The cotton mill closed, leading to widespread job layoffs in the area.
I had to leave to find some work the hardest part was leaving her
I had to relocate in search of employment, and the most challenging part was leaving her behind.
Nashville Tennessee it'd be beautiful if she was with me
Nashville, Tennessee would be beautiful if she were here with me.
But alone it's just another place till I close my eyes and see her face
However, being alone, it's just another place until I visualize her face when I close my eyes.
I'm dreaming Carolina dreams
I am immersed in dreams specifically related to North Carolina.
Though we're miles apart we're sharing the same moon
Despite the physical distance, we both share the same moon.
When it's shining on her it's shining on me too
When the moon shines on her, it is also shining on me.
I'm dreaming Carolina dreams in Tennessee
I am still engrossed in dreams associated with North Carolina while in Tennessee.
And someday soon I'll have her here with me
Anticipating a future where she will be by my side in Tennessee.
I'm dreaming Carolina dreams Carolina dreams, Carolina dreams
Continuing to dream about the beauty and allure of North Carolina.
