Intro Ever since we took that midnight drive Down to see the water in the full moon sky And I told you I loved you on the blue creek road Well I was full on falling for my Carolina Rose Spent the next few years just singing my songs With Rose in the front row singing along Til I got that call, had to hit that road Man, how am I gonna leave my Carolina Rose Yeah the big time is everything I ever wanted * But the spotlight cant hold a candle to you Standing up here on this stage, they all say man you got it made They dont know, it dont mean a thing without my Carolina Rose Met a California girl on a west coast run She sparkled like a diamond in the setting sun They called me crazy when I let her go I just couldnt stop thinking about my Carolina Rose Yeah the big time is everything I ever wanted * But the spotlight cant hold a candle to you Standing up here on this stage, they all say man you got it made They dont know, it dont mean a thing without my Carolina Rose Ive been halfway around the world Just to come back to you I hope I aint too late And I hope that youre still thinking about me too So now Im back here standing on your front porch Its been five years baby, but it feels like more Well let me drive you down that blue creek road I got something to say to my Carolina Rose Yeah the big time is everything I ever wanted * But the spotlight cant hold a candle to you Standing up there on that stage, it might look like i got it made But my heart knows, it dont mean a thing without my Carolina Rose No it dont mean a thing without my Carolina rose It dont mean a thing without my Carolina rose I know its not perfect so any corrections email me at [email protected]
