Carolina

What a predictable moment
 The songbird leaves its nest
 With a dream and a heavy chest
 Writing winded words to the clouds out west
 Is it for the best
 Who knows if it was the right thing
 Maybe I'm crazy in advance
 Leaving my love in the arms of chance
 Keep in mind I will never be anyone else's trusted or lusted hand
 And as I fly away into the light of the sun
 This isn't the end my darling, little star
 We've only begun
 When LA chews me up and spits me back out into the sky
 I know I'll land next to you, in Carolina
 Dear Jesus, I know that I have been a stranger as of late
 But I come know in seek of your grace
 'Cause it's times like these
 That I need to believe in your name
 Won't you keep her protected
 Keep her well inside the lines
 And warm in troubled times
 And if she meets someone new
 May he be the best man you've ever designed
 And as I fly away into the light of the sun
 This isn't the end my darling, little star
 We've only begun
