[Chorus]
In Carolina's eyes I see the ocean
In Carolina's eyes I see the one for me
When Carolina's eyes fill with emotion
I see the better man she makes me wanna be
And I say, "Oh, Carolina
You deserve a better man than me"
[Verse 1]
A warm breeze blowin'
From the sea tonight
And dreamin' bout my Carolina
Prayin' that she's alright
I'm just a piano man, singin' songs
For people I don't know
Oh, Carolina
Wish you never would've let me go
[Chorus]
In Carolina's eyes I see the ocean
In Carolina's eyes I see the one for me
When Carolina's eyes fill with emotion
I see the better man she makes me wanna be
And I say, "Oh, Carolina, ah
You deserve a better man than me
Sweet, sweet Carolina, ah
You deserve a better man than me"
[Verse 2]
Spend my time in cars and planes and empty hotel rooms
Yeah, it's a beautiful life everyone assumes
But I am just a country boy in a world I don't belong
Oh, Carolina, tonight, I'm singing' them your song, girl
[Chorus]
In Carolina's eyes I see the ocean
In Carolina's eyes I see the one for me, mmm
When Carolina's eyes fill with emotion
I see the better man she makes me wanna be
And I say, "Oh, Carolina, ah
You deserve a better man than me
Sweet, sweet Carolina, ah
You deserve a better man than me"
[Chorus / Outro]
Mmm, mmm
Carolina's eyes
In Carolina's eyes (Carolina's eyes) I see the ocean
In Carolina's eyes (Carolina's eyes) I see the one for me
Carolina's eyes (Carolina's eyes) and you fill with emotion
See the better man she (Carolina's eyes) makes me wanna be
Carolina's eyes (Carolina's eyes)
