Carolina
Livingston Taylor Lyrics

Carolina Day gonna rise up sometime
The feeling of positivity and good vibes that comes with a beautiful day in Carolina.

Give me good align said a reason and rhyme
As long as your thoughts are aligned with the beauty and serenity of the day, life is good.

Jump and sing all the time
A day as perfect as the Carolina Day makes people carefree, happy, and celebratory.

Work at a' easing my mind
The peacefulness of Carolina Day helps to put minds at ease and let people just enjoy the moment.

Carolina day don't rise in the morning
The feeling of a Carolina Day cannot be measured by the time of day. It's always there.

Don't set in the evening
Carolina Day doesn't end with the sunset. It stays with you all day long.

It ain't that way
You can't measure the joy and serenity of Carolina Day by usual standards. It's something else entirely.

Look up in the morning
When you wake up in the morning and you're greeted by a beautiful Carolina Day, you just can't help but smile.

And you got a grin
The day is so beautiful that it leaves people with a huge grin on their face.

And you're with a girl
If you're lucky enough to spend the day with someone special, it makes Carolina Day even more magical.

And you want to stay
It's such a beautiful day that you wish it would never end.

Then my friend you're in a Carolina day
When everything falls perfectly into place, you know you're having a true Carolina Day.

Alec and Brent they're lovin' their child
Some people are just having a great day with their loved ones.

And James is becoming a star
Some people are achieving their dreams and reaching new heights on Carolina Day.

Sister Kate's laughin' all the time
Others are just having a great time, enjoying the company of those around them on this special day.

And my mother smiles thinkin' isn't it fine
Carolina Day is a reminder of how important family is and brings loved ones together.

That the children are home again
For some, Carolina Day is a time when children can come back home to be with their family.

And Louis, my best friend falls on by
Carolina Day is also a time when friends can come together and enjoy each other's company.

And we're all together again.
At the end of the day, what really makes Carolina Day special is being together with the people you love.

Zippin' on down to the C.C. house
Sometimes, all it takes is a little trip to a favorite spot to make Carolina Day perfect.

Thought I'd put my father on
Even if your loved ones can't be with you on Carolina Day, they're still in your heart and mind.

Then smokes then booze then tokes then Herc
Some people might choose to celebrate Carolina Day with substances, but that's not what makes it special.

And my head were dead and gone
If you overindulge in those substances, you might miss out on the beauty of Carolina Day.

And Doctor Schein a lot of money and time
If you do end up having a little bit too much fun, it might take some time and money to sort things out.

And a few friends stickin' around
But true friends will be there for you no matter what and help you find your way back to a beautiful Carolina Day.

While taking care of business I found my Carolina day
Even in the midst of chaos, you can still find the magic of Carolina Day.

Didn't let me down.
No matter how you spend it, Carolina Day will never let you down.
