Carolina

(альбом: Olympus - 2021)

Memories stamped by car ride sing-alongs
Got you and me nostalgic of places we'd never even gone
I know you've had it rough, but not rough enough to cry
There's always someone somewhere who's had a harder time

He sings country songs from dusk 'til dawn
Can't bring himself to know
If she's still around, ask him whereabouts
He'll say she loved the coast

Carolina, please remind her
She's the reason I'm still here
Despite the wreckage that I've been left with
Despite the ever-growing fear
Even though we may be older
I'll be seeing you when it's over

We were never as close as she probably wished we were
Too much of the same stuff, not enough of her
But when the wolves are at your door and push has come to shove
There ain't a force on this earth that is stronger than your blood

So play your country songs from dusk 'til dawn
We'll head on down the road
Counting license plates from different states
Until we hit the coast

Carolina, please remind her
He's the reason I'm still here
Despite the wreckage that I've been left with
Despite the ever-growing fear
Even though we may be older
I'll be seeing you when it's over
I'll be seeing you when it's over
