[Verse 1]
I met a girl last summer, she was kinda cool
I knew in August she'd been headin' back to school
3,000 miles, so far away
I wrote a song for her, hopin' she come back someday
[Pre-Chorus 1]
From Eugene, Oregon to North Caroline'
Things keep moving, you can't stop time
Early morning Carolina blue sky
Well I'll still miss her and I don't know why
[Chorus]
But I'll keep singin', I'll keep dreamin'
But I've seen enough to know that it's only yesterday
I'll sing some good songs, hope it won't be long
'Til I see her with a smile on her pretty face
[Verse 2]
I left the bar with a Texas beauty queen
She drove a pickup truck painted North Texas green
She drove us down the highway back to her daddy's ranch
Stayed at the guest house, I thought I didn't have a chance
[Pre-Chorus 2]
To Denton, Texas to North Caroline'
Things keep moving, you can't stop time
Staying in the same place has never done me well
Beautiful girls, man I got some stories to tell
[Chorus]
I'll keep singin', I'll keep dreamin'
But I've seen enough to know it's only yesterday
I'll sing some good songs, hope it won't be long
'Til I see her with a smile on her pretty face
[Verse 3]
Now we're back in Charlotte, thinkin' I could get some sleep
But the phone keeps ringin', they're wantin' me to drink
I slept a few hours, it's 15 'til 4
Five drunk friends of mine are knockin' on my door
[Pre-Chorus 3]
The Queen City to North Caroline'
Things keep changing and you can't stop time
Late afternoon Caroline blue sky
I still miss her and I don't know why
[Chorus]
I'll keep singin', I'll keep dreamin'
But I've seen enough to know it's only yesterday
I'll sing some good songs, hope it won't be long
'Til I see her with a smile on that pretty face
[Chorus]
I'll keep singin', I'll keep dreamin'
I've seen enough to know that it's only yesterday
I'll sing some good songs, hope it won't be long
'Til I see her with that smile on her pretty face
