Leaving Carolina

One, two

When I crossed that line
I was feeling bold
Ornery and tired
Beating up that road
You caught my eye, it was no surprise
It was your plan, I suppose
Sayin', "I just wanna love you slow"

We had our fun
There was plenty to be had
Now the day's begun
To make it the past

Before I turn right on 46th Avenue
In the rearview I looked behind
Not a tear was in her eye

So tell me, am I leaving Carolina?
Tell me, am I leaving Carolina
Or is Carolina leaving me?

Now I'm traveling down
This highway alone
There's no need to fear
Lord knows I've been here before

But never with a girl as pretty as you
Watching me go
Lord knows it chills me down to the soul

So tell me, am I leaving Carolina?
Tell me, am I leaving Carolina?
Or is Carolina leaving me?
(Carolina)

I got your number in my phone
I could turn around and call you up, but I already know

I'm not leaving Carolina
No, I'm not leaving Carolina
No, I'm not leaving Carolina
No, I'm not leaving Carolina, no
Carolina's leaving me (Carolina's leaving me)
Carolina's leaving me

(Leaving Carolina) oh yeah, yeah, yeah
(Leaving)
