Lyrics
I left her a month ago
I tried it on my own
Now I've had my time alone
I want to go back home
I think back to another time
I was hers and she was mine
I hear her through the Georgia pines
Carolina's on my mind
Carolina's on my mind
I think about her all the time
I wipe a teardrop from my eyes
Carolina's on my mind
I guess I've come to see
How much she means to me
I want the world I left behind
Carolina's on my mind
I know I have come this far
I've had a change of heart
I would take her in my arms
That would be just the start
I want the way we used to be
She's the only one for me
I be headed for that county line
Carolina's on my mind
Carolina's on my mind
I think about her all the time
I wipe a teardrop from my eyes
Carolina's on my mind
I guess I've come to see
How much she means to me
I want the world I left behind
Carolina's on my mind
The mountains echo her name
Go back and accept the blame
It's just that more and more I find
Carolina's on my mind
