Gloriana - Carolina Rose Lyrics
Ever since we took that midnight driveDown to see the water in the full moon skyAnd I told you I loved you on the blue creek roadWell I was pullin on forward for my Carolina RoseSpent the next few years just singing my songWith Rose in the front row singing alongTil I got that call, had to hit that roadMan, how am I gonna leave my Carolina RoseYeah the big time is everything I ever wantedBut the spotlight can’t hold a candle to youStanding up here on this stage, they all say “man, you got it made”They don’t know, it don’t mean a thing without my Carolina RoseMet a California girl on a west coast runShe sparkled like a diamond in the setting sunThey called me crazy when I let her goI just couldn’t stop thinking about my Carolina RoseYeah the big time is everything I ever wantedBut the spotlight can’t hold a candle to youStanding up here on this stageThey all say, “man, you got it made”They don’t know, it don’t mean a thing without my Carolina RoseI’ve been halfway around the worldJust to come back to youI hope I ain’t too lateAnd I hope that you’re still thinking about me tooSo now I’m back here standing on your front porchIt’s been five years baby, but it feels like moreWell let me drive you down that blue creek roadI got something to say to my Carolina RoseYeah the big time is everything I ever wantedBut the spotlight can’t hold a candle to youStanding up there on that stage, you might look like you got it madeBut my heart knows, it don’t mean a thing without my Carolina RoseNo it don’t mean a thing without my Carolina roseIt don’t mean a thing without my Carolina rose
