Description
I am a Veteran and spent a few years deployed in Iraq and Germany. This song encompasses a lot of the feelings I have about the place I call home. It's a quaint little river-town full of farmers and fisherman. Though small and significant on a map, it was larger than life to me when I was halfway around the world. Hope you enjoy it and that it makes you think of the great state of North Carolina!
Lyrics
In my mind I go back in time, to when life seemed good all the time; and the people, they all seemed kind. I climbed aboard an aeroplane, to go play the jihad game; how could I've known, that it would never be the same. I remember, those big blue skies, the kind that warm you inside. I remember, those starry nights, the kind that keep dreams alive. I remember, those southern pines, the way they smell in my Caroline. Mine, oh, mine; mine, oh, mine. Oh, my sweet Caroline. People change and places grow, I've seen the sand, and the land of the snow. But there's only one place, I wanna go. I guess I'll build me a time machine, and unchain the impossible dream, breath some life into my memories. I remember, those big blue skies, the kind that warm you inside. I remember, those starry nights, the kind that keep dreams alive. I remember, those southern pines, the way they smell in my Caroline. Mine, oh, mine; mine, oh, mine. Oh, my sweet Caroline.
