The city sidewalks crackin
Where the past is pushing back
And I've been away for a year today
Making memories that will last
Autumn headlights burnin
Down battered winding roads
And I'll choose a fate that will pay the price
Of a wheel that never slows
Lord I know this life takes time
To find my place
But I just wanna be assured
I'm on my way
Carolina, I wanna call you home
But I'm on fire
Running like some kid that don't belong
Ain't it funny how I miss you when I'm gone
Carolina, won't you call me home
Restless nights all wasted
Tossing in my sleep
And I'll guard the day and hide the night
From the fears that make me weak
Yellow skies at sunset
Spin my red for blues
And everyday has a difference face
Like something I can't choose
Heavens knows this life tells lies
That I believe
But I just wanna be assured
On what I need
Carolina, I wanna call you home
But I'm on fire
Running like some kid that don't belong
Ain't it funny how I miss you now I'm gone
Carolina won't you call me home
Carolina, I wanna call you home
But I'm on fire
Running with a fever to belong
Ain't it funny how I miss you now I'm gone
Carolina won't you call me home
