Lyrics Carolina - M Ward

Carolina

«Where are you going?»
for the 250th time
«I'm waiting for a sign»
«Well it looks like another line»
And I’m walking backwards to the place where I come from
But that ain’t enough, no you want me to run
I used to feel like California with baby’s eyes so blue
Now I feel like Carolina: I split myself in two
And I’m walking backwards from Chicago through Washington
But that ain’t enough no you want me to run
«Better watch your soul it’ll leave you like a hundred bucks.»
My friends said «Stick to your guns» but instead I just got stuck
And I’m walking backwards looking forward to getting done
But that ain’t enough no you want me to run
