Carolina In My Mind - James Taylor

In my mind I'm goin' to Carolina 
Can't you see the sunshine 
Can't you just feel the moonshine 
Maybe just like a friend of mine 
It hit me from behind 
Yes I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind 

Karen she's a silver sun 
You best walk her way and watch it shinin' 
Watch her watch the mornin' come 
A silver tear appearing now I'm cryin' 
Ain't I goin' to Carolina in my mind 

There ain't no doubt it no ones mind 
That loves the finest thing around 
Whisper something warm and kind 
And hey babe the sky's on fire, I'm Dyin' 
Ain't I goin' 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 
Maybe just like a friend of mine 
It hit me from behind 
Yes I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind 

Dark and silent last last night 
I think I might have heard the highway calling 
Geese in flight and dogs that bite 
Signs that might be omens say I going, going 
I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind 

With a holy host of others standing 'round 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 
Maybe just like a friend of mine 
It hit me from behind 
Yes I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind
