[Verse 1:]
Sunrise through the evergreens
Another day is born
The hills take on a golden glow
A Carolina morn
I used to see you in her eyes
Now I just got to know
Oh Carolina, how could you let her go
[Chorus:]
Oh Carolina, if I'd only known
Oh Carolina, I would have never gone
[Verse 2:]
I thought the beauty of your hills
Would hold her here for me
I never dreamed while I was gone
You'd ever set her free
I trusted you with all my heart
And the only love I've known
Oh Carolina, how could you let her go
[Chorus][x2]
[Outro:]
I would have never gone
