Rhett Akins - Carolina Line lyrics

(Rhett Akins/Bruce Burch/Vern Dant) I guess she caught that plane early this morning 'Cause that "I've decided to stay" call never came And right about now Lord she's nearly back to Asheville I'm staring out at a south Georgia rain Wonderin' if I'll ever touch her again If there were only miles between us I'd be there in a good days drive But the last time I held her I saw the distance in her eyes She once crossed the Blue Ridge Mountains And swore that she'd be mine But she never brought her heart across The Carolina line She always said this place felt just like home But she had memories she never did unpack And even in my arms holdin' me close She never let go of the past Or the one who kept callin' her back If there were only miles between us I'd be there in a good days drive But the last time I held her I saw the distance in her eyes She must have missed those Blue Ridge Mountains Or someone she left behind 'Cause I never got her heart across The Carolina line When she crossed the Blue Ridge Mountains ANd left me here behind Lord knows she took my heart across That Carolina line
