Lyrics
Caroline
You saw the future in the leaves on the trees
I say darkness everywhere
I saw it falling down in your brown hair
Jasmine in the air
I can see, California, in my dreams
But I will never leave? Caroline
Your ship has sailed through magnolia trees
Moonlight shining on your dreams
You saw the future where I just saw the leaves
Help me if you please
I can see California in my dreams
But I will never leave? Caroline
Chatham County, Siler City bound
From the cradle to the grave
We are going to lay our worry down
Family bible turn the page
I can see California in my dreams
But I will never leave? Caroline
