CAROLINA LINE
I guess she caught that place
Early this mornin' cause her
I've decided to stay call never came
And right about now Lord she's nearly back to Ashville
I'm starin' out at a south Georgia rain
Wonderin' if I'll ever touch her again
CHORUS:
If there were only miles between us
I'd be there in a good days drive
But the last time I held her
I saw the distance in her eyes
She once crossed the Blue Ridge Mountains
And swore she'd be mine
But she never brought her heart across
That Carolina line
She always said this place felt just like home
But she had memories she never did unpack
And even in my arms holdin' me close
She never let go of the past
Or the one who kept callin' her back
CHORUS:
If there were only miles between us
I'd be there in a good days drive
But the last time I held her
I saw the distance in her eyes
She must have missed those Blue Ridge Mountains
Or someone she left behind
'Cause I never got her heart across
The Carolina line
When she crossed the Blue Ridge Mountains
And left me here behind
Lord knows she took my heart across
That Carolina Line
