Charlotte’s In North Carolina Lyrics by Keith Whitley

Keith Whitley: A Tribute Album

2015

Verse 1:
I watched the taxi take her away
Through the window she was waving goodbye
There wasn't much left to say
Her last "I love you" was a lie
Did she leave me for somebody else
And just leave me behind
All she left me was by myself
And if that plane arrives on time
Chorus:
Charlotte's in North Carolina
Back where she wanted to be
Charlotte's in North Carolina
She left me here in Saint Louis in misery
Verse 2:
I was kinda hoping she'd call
Let me know she made it okay
Now that phone's driving me up the wall
It hasn't rung all day
I hope she finds what she's looking for
That's all that matters to me
Cause all it cost me was my heart
To set my sweet Charlotte free
