Carolina

The sky was painted red and blue

The day that I first looked at you

A Fourth of July I'll never forget

The sweetest blessing I've ever met

I held you close and watched you breathe

The only firework I needed to see

I love watching you learn and grow

More than you will ever know

Carolina, you've got a heart of gold

You're sweet and loving, brave and bold

From your creative mind to your fearless soul

You're the brightest light this world could hold

Keep on shining, take on the world

I love you so much, my baby girl

You lace your cleats and take the field

With a steady strength that will not yield

My soccer star, so quick and smart

You play the game with all your heart

Athletic and tough, but gentle too

There's nothing in this life you cannot do

I stand on the sidelines, cheering your name

Just smiling at the girl who runs the game

Carolina, you've got a heart of gold

You're sweet and loving, brave and bold

From your creative mind to your fearless soul

You're the brightest light this world could hold

Keep on shining, take on the world

I love you so much, my baby girl

And when we need some time to slow it down

We leave the rush of our hometown

Down to Dauphin Island, where the water's wide

Walking the sand right by your side

Those are the moments I treasure the most

Making memories with you on the coast

Carolina, you've got a heart of gold

You're sweet and loving, brave and bold

From your creative mind to your fearless soul

You're the brightest light this world could hold

Keep on shining, take on the world

I love you so much, my baby girl

Yeah, I love you so much, my baby girl
