From the recording Time Flies
Lyrics
Carolina Sky
Clouds are swirling 'round the Carolina moon
Waves are crashing on the Carolina dunes
I'm singing my songs to this Carolina sky
The promise of freedom under an American sky
Under an American sky.
Hear the hymns ring out in the night
Where the people still believe in the fight
But clouds now hide the Carolina moon
Where is the promise? Gone so soon
Gone so soon.
Sacred words and waving flags, believing in the best
Blessed are the golden boys but what about the rest?
Freedom won, Freedom lost, Freedom comes at such a cost
Who will pay our debts to keep us free?
Carolina sun rises out of the sea
Spreads its light in the Land of Liberty
But Freedom's not found in American dreams
It only lives in you and me
In you and me.
But Freedom's not found in American dreams
It only lives in you and me
In you and me.
