Carolina QuotesReal. Real like a plastic bouquet That thrives on the smoke from an old fireplace And dies every night with her face on the news. Nobody cries, they just smoke and stare and their shoes. The only difference is, The only difference is, Nobody can cry - It's hard to do For most folks, without a reason why.

There's something in the way she eases my mind And lays me across the bed till I close my eyes. Stirs me in the morning till I can't ever be satisfied. I leave Carolina every night in my dreams, Like the girls that try to love me that I only leave. Rock me like a baby doll and hold me to your chest, But I'm always moving too fast.
I quit drinking every night, at 1:30 A.M.
As a man I ain’t never been much for sunny days. I’m as calm as a fruit stand in New York and maybe as strange. But when the color goes out of my eyes, it’s usually the change. But damn, Sam, I love a woman that rains.
