In Carolina's eyes I see the ocean
In Carolina's eyes I see the one for me
When Carolina's eyes fill with emotion
I see the better man she makes me wanna be

And I say, "Oh, Carolina
You deserve a better man than me"

A warm breeze blowin'
From the sea tonight
Dreamin' 'bout my Carolina
Prayin' that she's alright

I'm just a piano man
Singin' songs for people I don't know
Oh, Carolina
Wish you never would've let me go

In Carolina's eyes I see the ocean
In Carolina's eyes I see the one for me
When Carolina's eyes fill with emotion
I see the better man she makes me wanna be

And I say, "Oh, Carolina
You deserve a better man than me
Sweet, sweet Carolina
You deserve a better man than me"

Spend my time in cars and planes
And empty hotel rooms
Yeah, it's a beautiful life
Everyone assumes

But I am just a country boy
In a world I don't belong
Oh, Carolina, tonight
I'm singin' them your song

In Carolina's eyes I see the ocean
In Carolina's eyes I see the one for me
When Carolina's eyes fill with emotion
I see the better man she makes me wanna be

And I say, "Oh, Carolina
You deserve a better man than me
Sweet, sweet Carolina
You deserve a better man than me"

Carolina's eyes

In Carolina's eyes I see the ocean
In Carolina's eyes I see the one for me
Carolina's eyes fill with emotion
I see the better man she makes me wanna be

In Carolina's eyes
