For Chelsea
I head this on the radio and thought that it was perfect - its even more perfect now that I found out that the songwriters are from Switzerland and fell in love with North Carolina when they came to America. Im dedicating this one to you, Chelsea.
Carolina In The Fall

All the places I have been to
All the things that I have seen
Since I left my home to wander
When I was just fifteen
Though the travelin' was easy
Still sometimes the road got rough
And by the time that I turned thirty-five
I thought I'd seen enough
But for me to settle down awhile
Was not what God had planned
So one more time I left my home
With suitcase in my hand
Oh the journey took me far and wide
Across the deep blue sea
And now I know since I've been there
Where I was meant to be
I've seen sunsets on the ocean
I've seen the desert bloom
I've driven endless highways
Beneath the prairie moon
Yet the picture in my mind that I see
When I think about it all
Is the color of the leaves
In Carolina in the Fall
Now for thirty years I've played the songs
That Doc has taught to me
And the things that he has sung about
I never thought I'd see
In the hills of Carolina
Folks have opened up the door
And for the first time in my life
I’m not a stranger anymore
I've seen sunsets on the ocean
I've seen the desert bloom
I've driven endless highways
Beneath the prairie moon
Yet the picture in my mind I see
When I think about it all
Is the color of the leaves
In Carolina in the Fall
Yet the picture in my mind I see
When I think about it all
Is the color of the leaves
In Carolina in the Fall
Peace,
Audrey
