Teach me love and teach me light babe
Red and purple, blue and gold
Ask me no questions I'll tell you no lies
Where I been ain't where I'm going
I'm flying away tonight, to Carolina
This time tomorrow I'll be out of sight
Found a little light, inside my mind babe
My silver lining in the dead of night
Where the colours shine
And the stars take flight
'Cause we can't tell the sunrise
To wait another night
I'll hold you 'til the crow flies
Time gonna dry your eyes
Some people tell you to be open
Some people tell you to be whole
But I've never felt quite so all alone
Everything that dies is made of stone
I'm flying away tonight, to Carolina
This time tomorrow I'll be out of sight
Found a little light, inside my mind babe
My silver lining in the dead of night
Where the colours shine
And the stars take flight
'Cause we can't tell the sunrise
To wait another night
I'll hold you 'til the crow flies
Time gonna dry your eyes
I'm flying away tonight, to Carolina
This time tomorrow I'll be out of sight
Found a little light, inside my mind babe
My silver lining in the dead of night
Where the colours shine
And the stars take flight
'Cause we can't tell the sunrise
To wait another night
I'll hold you 'til the crow flies
Time gonna dry your eyes
