Lyrics for Blue Carolina
It's everything that I can do right now To not think about you moving further off With every passing second And every night of this lonely summertime I feel you missing from my heart A part was kidnapped from my soul Well, I can hardly wait Until I get the sun and your lips both pressing on my skin Well, I can hardly wait Until I feel that thrill in my heart that starts inside your eyes And a song in my head that burns so good on my tongue Yes I will The night is aging as the sun warms your face Won't you turn around and stay for good The air is getting much too cold I am nervous and anxious, it really counts this time And you know all my favorite singers Have stolen all of my best lines Well, I can hardly wait Until I get the sun and your lips both pressing on my skin Well, I can hardly wait Until I feel that thrill in my heart that starts inside your eyes And a song in my head that burns so good on my tongue Someday I'll burn this bed Only two feet wide, where I'll hide For the next 17 days I will ask myself, "How badly do I want this?" I really want this Well, I can hardly wait Until I get the sun and your lips both pressing on my skin Well, I can hardly wait Until I feel that thrill in my heart that starts inside your eyes And a song in my head that burns so good on my tongue
