Carolina

Carolina come quick, it’s a mystery to me
The embers still red in the forge
It’s been lit for a week, and the snow came in hard
The beast flew the northern sea

Carolina my back has been aching for weeks
I have carried your love through it all
My sins start to flood from my mouth, I'm a curse
Your secret’s too much for me

Carolina, do you love me
You’re the black in my blood the infectious disease
Can you cure me, if so leave me be
I’ve been wasting my time waiting for your defeat

Carolina your heart runs the depth of a cave
Carved from the mountain side
The waves they have worked since the first morning rise
The Sun and the Moon alike

Carolina, do you love me
You’re the black in my blood the infectious disease
Can you cure me, if so leave me be
I’ve been wasting my time waiting for your defeat

And I hate to see you crying but darling we need to leave
The beast is here, the birds are fleeing from the trees
Now the clouds are casting shadows over me
Carolina, my love, could you answer please

Carolina come quick, it’s a mystery to me
The embers still red in the forge
It’s been lit for a week, and the snow came in hard
The beast flew the northern sea

Carolina, do you love me
You’re the black in my blood the infectious disease
Can you cure me, if so leave me be
I’ve been wasting my time waiting for your defeat

Can you cure me?
If so, leave me be
Can you cure me?
If so, leave me be
