Carolina in the Pines, by Michael Martin Murphy.


        



                    
She came to me,said she new me
                          
said she'd know me a long time
                      
And she spoke of being in love
                             
With every mountain she had climed


                               
And she talked of trails she' walked up
                     
Far above the timber line
                               
From that night on i knew i'd write songs
                      
With Carolina in the pines

       

                         
Theres a new moon on the 14th
                  
First quarter the 21st
                         
And the full moon in the last week
                           
Brings a fullness to this earth

                            
Theres no guesswork in the clockwork
                       
All the worlds are all mine
                        
There are nights i only feel right
                     
With Carolina in the pines


                    


                              
When the frost shows on the window
                               
And the wood stove smokes and glows
                          
As the fire grows we will warm ourselves
                          
Watching rainbows in the cold


                             
And we'll talk of trails we walked up
                      
Far above the timber line
                        
There are nights i only feel right
                      
With Carolina in the pines
