Carolina In My Mind Lyrics - One Man Band - James Taylor

In my mind I'm gone to Carolina 

Can't you see the sunshine? 

Can't you just feel the moonshine? 

Ain't it just like a friend of mine 

To hit me from behind? 

Yes, I'm gone to Carolina in my mind 

Karin, she's a silver sun 

You best walk her way and watch it shine 

And watch her watch the morning come 

A silver tear appearing now 

I'm cryin', ain't I? 

Gone to Carolina in my mind 

There ain't no doubt in no ones mind 

That love's the finest thing around 

Whisper something soft and kind 

And hey babe, the sky's on fire 

I'm dying, ain't I? 

Gone to Carolina in my mind 

In my mind I'm gone to Carolina 

Can't you see the sunshine? 

Can't you just feel the moonshine? 

And, ain't it just like a friend of mine 

To hit me from behind? 

Yes, I'm gone to Carolina in my mind 

Dark and silent, late last night, 

I think I might have heard the highway call 

And geese in flight and dogs that bite 

The signs that might be omens say 

I'm goin', I'm goin' 

I'm gone to Carolina in my mind 

With a holy host of others standin' around me 

Still I'm on the dark side of the moon 

And it seems like it goes on like this forever 

You must forgive me, if I'm up and gone to 

Carolina in my mind 

In my mind I'm goin' to Carolina 

Can't you see the sunshine? 

Can't you just feel the moonshine? 

Ain't is just like a friend of mine 

To hit me from behind 

Yes, I'm gone to Carolina in my mind 

Gone to Carolina in my mind 

And I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind 

Goin' to Carolina in my mind 

Gone, I'm gone, I'm gone 

Say nice things about me 'cause I'm gone south now 

Got to carry on without me, I'm gone
