"Carolina" lyrics - SARA BAREILLES

California in the evening
Rush past the water
Get me over the great state line
The sky's electric, boy, it's screaming
Trying to find the morning
Hell, I'd settle for the other side

Don't bother counting up the days, boy
Number's getting bigger by the minute
And I'm so tired
But I can honestly say, boy
Oh, unless you're in it I don't want it
So here it comes...

[Pre-Chorus:]
Fire
Over the horizon
Keeping my eyes
On wire

[Chorus:]
All the way in Carolina
I won't go home until I find ya
You fill my bones, my mind up
So I'm coming to Carolina
Don't you know I'm right behind ya?
No love of mine
Is gonna wind up
Leaving me for Carolina

Don't feel the summer like I used to
Boy, you got the thunder, tug me under
It's all your fault
Want me to let you leave, do you?
Well, I never minded aftermath
And this is what happens to a...

[Pre-Chorus:]
Liar
Miles of the highway
Nothing to stop me
'Til I'm done

[Chorus:]
Coming for you, Carolina
I won't go home until I find ya
You fill my bones, my mind up
So I'm coming to Carolina
Don't you know I'm right behind ya?
No love of mine
Is gonna wind up
Leaving me for Carolina

[Bridge:]
I don't mind the rain, it suits me
Makes the pain pursuit seem
Less unruly
It's been a good night
And one hell of a drive

[Chorus:]
Coming for you, Carolina
I won't go home until I find ya
You fill my bones, my mind up
So I'm coming to Carolina
Don't you know I'm right behind ya?
No love of mine
Is gonna wind up
Leaving me for Carolina
Leaving me for Carolina
Leaving me for Carolina
