| [00:11.23] |
Ever since we took that midnight drive |
| [00:16.05] |
Down to see the water in the full moon sky |
| [00:21.05] |
And I told you I loved you on the blue creek road |
| [00:26.43] |
Well I was full-on fallen for my Carolina Rose |
| [00:30.30] |
. |
| [00:34.86] |
I spent the next few years just singing my songs |
| [00:40.18] |
With Rose in the front row singing along |
| [00:45.43] |
'Til I got that call, had to hit that road |
| [00:50.55] |
Man, how am I gonna leave my Carolina Rose |
| [00:54.49] |
. |
| [00:55.74] |
Yeah the big time is everything I ever wanted |
| [01:01.93] |
But the spotlight can't hold a candle to you |
| [01:07.86] |
Standing up here on this stage, |
| [01:10.87] |
They all say, "Man, you got it made" |
| [01:13.87] |
They don't know, |
| [01:17.55] |
It don't mean a thing without my Carolina Rose |
| [01:21.55] |
. |
| [01:25.74] |
I met a California girl on a west coast run |
| [01:30.98] |
She sparkled like a diamond in the setting sun |
| [01:36.31] |
They called me crazy when I let her go |
| [01:41.49] |
I just couldn't stop thinking about my Carolina Rose |
| [01:45.50] |
. |
| [01:46.74] |
Yeah the big time is everything I ever wanted |
| [01:52.68] |
But the spotlight can't hold a candle to you |
| [01:58.80] |
Standing up here on this stage |
| [02:01.68] |
They all say, "Man, you got it made" |
| [02:04.87] |
They don't know, |
| [02:08.37] |
It don't mean a thing without my Carolina Rose |
| [02:12.12] |
. |
| [02:16.31] |
I've been halfway around the world |
| [02:20.05] |
Just to come back to you |
| [02:22.43] |
I hope I ain't too late |
| [02:26.06] |
And I hope that you're still thinking about me too |
| [02:33.11] |
. |
| [02:34.80] |
So now I'm back here standing on your front porch |
| [02:40.05] |
It's been five years baby, but it feels like more |
| [02:45.49] |
Well let me drive you down that blue creek road |
| [02:50.62] |
I got something to say to my Carolina Rose |
| [02:54.74] |
. |
| [02:55.74] |
Yeah the big time was everything I ever wanted |
| [03:01.80] |
But the spotlight can't hold a candle to you |
| [03:07.93] |
Standing up there on that stage, |
| [03:10.87] |
It might look like I got it made |
| [03:13.93] |
But my heart knows, |
| [03:22.62] |
It don't mean a thing without my Carolina Rose |
| [03:27.81] |
No it don't mean a thing without my Carolina Rose |
| [03:33.18] |
Yeah, it don't mean a thing without my Carolina Rose |
