Carolina

Me and you in a midnight blue, '82 Camaro 
Crossin' over the Hartwell bridge movin' fast as she would go 
Windows down, radio up, we were singin' "Freebird" 
Flyin' up to your daddy's cabin just outside of Spartanburg 

Do you remember the way you looked at me back then 
Two hungry eyes wrapped up in a smile so innocent 
It all makes one hell of a reminder 
Keeps me cryin' Carolina 

We had a hotel room with a harbor view and a bottle of Chianti 
That spring break in Charleston, it keeps comin' back to haunt me 
Took a carriage ride to the battery, toasted shots above the water 
Then stumbled 'cross the cobblestone, hands holdin' us together 

Do you remember the way we carried on 
Blew all our money and we had to starve the whole way home 
It all makes one hell of a reminder 
Keeps me cryin' Carolina 

I can't let it go, no I can't let it go 
I don't wanna' let go, oh no it feels too far away 
Do you remember the single bed that we slept in 
When I'd ride up to Clemson and hide in your room the whole weekend 
It all makes one hell of a reminder 
Keeps me cryin' Carolina
