Sunrise through the evergreens
Another day is born
The hills take on a golden glow
A carolina morn
I used to see you in her eyes
Now i just got to know
Oh carolina, how could you let her go
Chorus:
Oh carolina, if i'd only known
Oh carolina, i would have never gone
I thought the beauty of your hills
Would hold her here for me
I never dreamed while i was gone
You'd ever set her free
I trusted you with all my heart
And the only love i've known
Oh carolina, how could you let her go
Repeat chorus x 2
I would have never gone
