Texty: Vince Gill. Vintage Gill. Oh Carolina.

Sunrise through the evergreens
Another day is born
The hills take on a golden glow
A Carolina morn

I used to see you in her eyes
Now, I just got to know
Oh Carolina, how could you let her go?

Oh Carolina, if I'd only known
Oh Carolina, I would have never gone

I thought the beauty of your hills
Would hold her here for me
I never dreamed while I was gone
You'd ever set her free

I trusted you with all my heart
And the only love I've known
Oh Carolina, how could you let her go?

Oh Carolina, if I'd only known
Oh Carolina, I would have never gone
Oh Carolina, if I'd only known
Oh Carolina, I would have never gone
I would have never gone
