LYRICS
[Verse 1]
I was born by the river, in a Carolina town
Where the pine trees whisper, and the water runs down
With a heart full of dreams, and a banjo on my knee
I’d sing the songs of old, where the mountains meet the sea
[Chorus]
Carolina sunshine, you’re the light of my life
Through the valleys and the hills, you cut through the strife
With your golden rays, and your skies so blue
Carolina sunshine, I’ll come home to you
[Verse 2]
The road took me far, to the cities and the plains
But the call of Carolina, runs wild in my veins
From the Appalachian trails, to the Outer Banks breeze
Your sweet melody, brings me back with ease
[Chorus]
Carolina sunshine, you’re the light of my life
Through the valleys and the hills, you cut through the strife
With your golden rays, and your skies so blue
Carolina sunshine, I’ll come home to you
[Bridge]
No matter where I roam, or how far I stray
I’ll find my way back home, to where my heart will stay
In the glow of your morning, and the calm of your night
Carolina sunshine, you’ll always be my light
[Chorus]
Carolina sunshine, you’re the light of my life
Through the valleys and the hills, you cut through the strife
With your golden rays, and your skies so blue
Carolina sunshine, I’ll come home to you
[Outro]
So here’s to the mountains, the rivers, and the sea
To the Carolina sunshine, forever guiding me
With every song I sing, and every note I play
I’ll cherish Carolina, till my dying day
