Carolina Lyrics
Jump to:
Home is where my heart is still beating
I don't know when I'll see her again
I hate to see her cry when I'm leaving
But now I'm a thousand miles away again
She feels like Carolina (feels like Carolina)
Looks like California (looks like California)
Shining like those New York lights on Broadway
When she looks back I'm behind her
I'll always be there for her
She makes me feel like home's not so far away
She feels like Carolina
It's hard to understand the way I'm living
I know you think I'm never coming home (never coming home)
But I miss your pretty smile, and I'm coming back in a little while
But I'm a thousand miles away again
She feels like Carolina (feels like Carolina)
Looks like California (looks like California)
Shining like those New York lights on Broadway
When she looks back I'm behind her
I'll always be there for her
She makes me feel like home's not so far away
She makes me feel like home's not so far away
No matter how far I go, you know I can't stop thinking about her
And there's nothing like the way I feel, the way I feel when I'm beside her
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
She feels like Carolina
Looks like California
Shining like those New York lights on Broadway
She feels like Carolina (feels like Carolina)
Looks like California
Shining like those New York lights on Broadway
When she looks back I'm behind her (feels like Carolina)
I'll always be there for her
She makes me feel like home's not so far away
Carolina
California
Like home's not so far away
She feels like Carolina (feels like Carolina)
Looks like California
She makes me feel like home's not so far away
She makes me feel like home (so far away)
She makes me feel like home's not so far away
I don't know when I'll see her again
I hate to see her cry when I'm leaving
But now I'm a thousand miles away again
She feels like Carolina (feels like Carolina)
Looks like California (looks like California)
Shining like those New York lights on Broadway
When she looks back I'm behind her
I'll always be there for her
She makes me feel like home's not so far away
She feels like Carolina
It's hard to understand the way I'm living
I know you think I'm never coming home (never coming home)
But I miss your pretty smile, and I'm coming back in a little while
But I'm a thousand miles away again
She feels like Carolina (feels like Carolina)
Looks like California (looks like California)
Shining like those New York lights on Broadway
When she looks back I'm behind her
I'll always be there for her
She makes me feel like home's not so far away
She makes me feel like home's not so far away
No matter how far I go, you know I can't stop thinking about her
And there's nothing like the way I feel, the way I feel when I'm beside her
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
She feels like Carolina
Looks like California
Shining like those New York lights on Broadway
She feels like Carolina (feels like Carolina)
Looks like California
Shining like those New York lights on Broadway
When she looks back I'm behind her (feels like Carolina)
I'll always be there for her
She makes me feel like home's not so far away
Carolina
California
Like home's not so far away
She feels like Carolina (feels like Carolina)
Looks like California
She makes me feel like home's not so far away
She makes me feel like home (so far away)
She makes me feel like home's not so far away

Carolina Info:
Carolina was first released on Parmalee's 2008 EP entitled Complicated before being remixed and re-released
on February 4, 2013 as their second single for Stoney Creek Records.
It is included on their album Feels Like Carolina, which was released on December 10, 2013.
Matt Thomas explained the song's meaning to Billboard magazine: "It's all about home," he said. "It's very autobiographical, since we're gone all the time. We always miss all the family events and everyone, so coming home is good. We were out in California for a few months and got back home to North Carolina, and it felt like home. I had this notion that reminded me of California, so I put the two together, and we flipped it into a relationship song."
Barry Knox added: "This song kind of defines us as a group, as far as our music and lyrical content. Obviously, we're from Carolina, so it means a whole lot to us. We've been together for a few years before we wrote that song, and when we wrote it, we felt that we really hit it. Matt's voice is perfect on the song, and it just sounds like a Parmalee song."
