Halfway to Carolina Lyrics

Fell for a girl from the sunshine state

Then I packed my bags and I was on my way

Love and lust were two different things

That's a lesson that I learned the hard way

Wasted time ain't time well spent

I dealt with more things than I'd like to admit

But none of that seems to matter now

'Cuz I'm taking my heartbreak and leaving this town

And I'm gone, and I ain't ever coming back

I'm moving on, a little further from my past

I'm getting better every mile that I go

Ill be halfway to Carolina

Before she ever comes back home

I worked forty hour weeks

Just to come home and find her somewhere else

Wondering what went wrong, where she'd gone

And why im sitting here by myself

Now all I've got is Jack and Jim

After finding out that she's with him

But none of that seems to matter now

'Cuz im on the road and she's at his house

And I'm gone, and I ain't ever coming back

I'm moving on, a little further from my past

I'm getting better every mile that I go

I'll be halfway to Carolina

Before she ever comes back home

All the miles of empty highway in between

Woah, my memory is all she'll ever see

When I wake up in the morning

I know right where i'll be

Ill be home, and I ain't ever going back

And I moved on, and I'm so far from my past

I got better every mile that I drove

Ill be over her before she even knows

Now I'm back in Carolina

And she's just getting home
