Ronnie Milsap - Carolina Dreams lyrics

rate me

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
