"Carolina"


Carolina
Her tears are falling like the spanish moss
Disappearing
Into beauty found in beauty lost

So it goes
The summer blooms and fades away
Like moonlight falling on a bed
And there can be no solice in remembering
The words we never said

Faded postcards
Of all the places she loves best
Take her far away
As she presses wrinkles from her cotton dress

So it goes
The summer blooms and fades away
Like moonlight falling on a bed
And there can be no solice in remembering
The words we never said

So it goes
The summer blooms and fades away
Like moonlight crashing to the earth
And there can be no solice in remembering
The way things never were

 

"i walk alone" oleander

 

Carolina's just a song. And a good one. I'm glad a person or two picked up on that. I think it's the vibraphone that messes people up...I know that my other sax player can't sit in the same room with John Coltrane's Alabama (the irony there is implied but not intentional), but that's partly because of the bombings back in the day in Alabama. I still think it's the vibraphone.

It's all good, I spent enough time as a child singing about NC that I can deal with Sheryl Crow just singing about something, anything else.

Now that Petey Pablo guy, I don't know what's up with that at all.
Ex:
North Carolina
come on and raise up
take your shirt off
spin it round your head like a helicopter

you might like it Reb. Except for not really.
