Sometimes there are songs I just can't get out of my head. As I was catching up on some blogs today, I saw a beautiful picture of a woman walking down the aisle with her father...and this song flooded my brain. My oldest brother will be walking me down the aisle at my wedding, not my father. And while most of the time this fact doesn't bother me in the slightest...when I hear this song, I cry. I realize that most people may not understand the meaning...but I just had to write it down.
Sometimes I think about you
Wonder if you're out there somewhere thinking 'bout me
And would you even recognize
The woman that your little girl has grown up to be
'Cause I look in the mirror and all I see
Are your blue eyes looking back at me
They're the only thing you ever gave to me at all.
Oh, I hear the weather's nice in California
There's sunny skies as far as I can see
If you ever come back home to Carolina
I wonder what you'd say to me
Did you think I didn't need you here?
To hold my hand, to dry my tears?
Did you even miss me through the years at all?
Oh, I hear the weather's nice in California
There's sunny skies as far as I can see
If you ever come back home to Carolina
I wonder what you'd say to me
Forgiveness is such a simple word
But it's so hard to do when you've been hurt
Oh, I hear the weather's nice in California
And just in case you're wondering about me
From now on I won't be in Carolina
Your little girl is off, your little girl is off
Your little girl is off to Tennessee
