Carolina

[Verse 1] Memories stamped by car ride sing-alongs Got you and me nostalgic of places we'd never even gone I know you've had it rough, but not rough enough to cry There's always someone somewhere who's had a harder time [Pre-Chorus 1] He sings country songs from dusk 'til dawn Can't bring himself to know If she's still around, ask him whereabouts He'll say she loved the coast [Chorus 1] Carolina, please remind her She's the reason I'm still here Despite the wreckage that I've been left with Despite the ever-growing fear Even though we may be older I'll be seeing you when it's over [Verse 2] We were never as close as she probably wished we were Too much of the same stuff, not enough of her But when the wolves are at your door and push has come to shove There ain't a force on this earth that is stronger than your blood [Pre-Chorus 2] So play your country songs from dusk 'til dawn We'll head on down the road Counting license plates from different states Until we hit the coast [Chorus 2] Carolina, please remind her He's the reason I'm still here Despite the wreckage that I've been left with Despite the ever-growing fear Even though we may be older I'll be seeing you when it's over I'll be seeing you when it's over
