thank you, james taylor, for the most beautiful song ever written

in my mind i'm gone to carolina
can't you see the sunshine
can't you just feel the moonshine
and ain't it just like a friend of mine
to hit me from behind
i'm gone to carolina in my mind
karen sees a silver sun
you best walk her way and watch it shining
watch her watch the morning come
a silver tear appearing now
i'm crying, ain't i
i'm gone to carolina in my mind
there ain't no doubt in no one's mind
that love's the finest thing around
and whispers something soft and kind
hey babe, the sky's on fire
and i'm dying, ain't i
i'm gone to carolina in my mind
in my mind i'm gone to carolina
can't you see the sunshine
can't you just feel the moonshine
ain't it just like a friend of mine
to hit me from behind
yes i'm gone to carolina in my mind
dark and silent late last night
i think i might have heard the highway calling
geese in flight, and dogs that bite
signs that might be omens
say i'm going, going
gone to carolina in my mind
with a holy host of others standing round me
still i'm on the dark side of the moon
and it feels like it goes on like this forever
you must forgive me...if i'm up and gone to carolina in my mind
in my mind i'm gone to carolina
can't you see the sunshine
can't you just feel the moonshine
and ain't it just like a friend of mine
to hit me from behind
and then i'm gone to carolina in my mind
