I tried to write you a love song
Stayed up late last night trying to get it right
But it still comes out all wrong
Was I such a fool for believing
You'd never be leaving me

When we met, we were young
And, man, it was crazy
Runnin' so fast, chasin' the sun
But never stoppin' to ask why
Sharing dreams that we thought could last forever
'Cause nothin's forever

Carolina, why'd we have to string it along
You were my song, you gave meaning to my song
Carolina, why'd we have to take so damn long
To bring the curtain down, we brought the curtain down
But it left me on the ground, babe

I tried to write you a love song
Stayed up late last night trying to get it right
But it still comes out all wrong
Nobody's right and nobody's wrong

Like a story that begins with once upon a time
Our love didn't need no reason or rhyme
Or no special time or season to grow
Nobody's right and nobody's wrong

Carolina, why'd we have to string it along
You were my song, you gave meaning to my song
Carolina, why'd we have to take so damn long
To bring the curtain down, we brought the curtain down
But it left me on the ground, babe

Now I know

Nobody's right, nobody's wrong
Nobody's right, nobody's wrong
Nobody's right, nobody's wrong

It's just a sad situation
Do you still think of me
Like I still think of you
In the middle of the night
Gotta say it again
