South Carolina

(album: Lady In Waiting - 1976)

Drove in from Texas, tired of being alone,
it's so far to find a love on your own,
now we'll be sharing all these days together, you and me,
it's good to find out just exactly what we want to be.

South Carolina, stars in her eyes,
Blue Ridge Mountain, home in the sky.

Laundry's glowing on the afternoon line,
sun'll dry them as long as it shines,
you've been shining through my eyes with everything I see,
darkness and daylight lets me know what you really mean to me.

South Carolina, stars in her eyes,
Blue Ridge Mountain, home in the sky.

It's time to pack up and get ready to go,
things I think lately are things I used to know,
and I've been thinking, Carolina, we can find a way
to be together every night and I'll have you every day.

South Carolina, stars in her eyes,
Blue Ridge Mountain, home in the sky.

South Carolina, stars in her eyes,
Blue Ridge Mountain, home in the sky.
