Lyrics to Carolina Burns
Nothing sticks around like a Statesville dream
Only think about you if you think about me
I got 5 tattoos that you've never seen
Isn't that strange
I didn't give it up - but it felt like I did
Lost mostly all of my innocence
My heart still shows all your fingerprints
Don't think it'll change
Doesn't even hurt
You ain't even mine
But there's something bout the first
That keeps me up at night
Oh, for better, for worse
From time to time
Carolina still burns in the back of my, back of my mind
We won't cross paths, I won't see you out
Cause it's a long way from Tennessee to wherever you are now
I still wear a grudge like a fucked up crown
But I still wish you well somewhere deep down
Doesn't even hurt
You ain't even mine
But there's something bout the first
That keeps me up at night
Oh, for better, for worse
From time to time
Carolina still burns in the back of my, back of my mind
Back of heart
Part of me's still in the back of your car
When I left town
Thought I left you
But still some ties that I can't cut loose
Shouldn't even hurt
I should be I'm fine
But I sing about the hell, I still think about the high
Oh, for better, for worse
From time to time
Carolina still burns in the back of my, back of my mind
Carolina you still burn in the back of my, back of my mind
Only think about you if you think about me
I got 5 tattoos that you've never seen
Isn't that strange
I didn't give it up - but it felt like I did
Lost mostly all of my innocence
My heart still shows all your fingerprints
Don't think it'll change
Doesn't even hurt
You ain't even mine
But there's something bout the first
That keeps me up at night
Oh, for better, for worse
From time to time
Carolina still burns in the back of my, back of my mind
We won't cross paths, I won't see you out
Cause it's a long way from Tennessee to wherever you are now
I still wear a grudge like a fucked up crown
But I still wish you well somewhere deep down
Doesn't even hurt
You ain't even mine
But there's something bout the first
That keeps me up at night
Oh, for better, for worse
From time to time
Carolina still burns in the back of my, back of my mind
Back of heart
Part of me's still in the back of your car
When I left town
Thought I left you
But still some ties that I can't cut loose
Shouldn't even hurt
I should be I'm fine
But I sing about the hell, I still think about the high
Oh, for better, for worse
From time to time
Carolina still burns in the back of my, back of my mind
Carolina you still burn in the back of my, back of my mind
