I lost myself
crossing the Appalachians
I left my heart
somewhere in Caroline
They say a good man
even has a point of breaking
And a girl can make
the best men lose their minds
Through the caverns
I hear the howling in the distance
Of the hounds I
can't escape how hard I try
I lost myself
crossing the Appalachians
Try'n to get back to
my love in Caroline
Oh, Sweet Lord of Mercy, take me home to see my love
Let my heart be free from worry
Away I'll run, oh on I'll run
Away I'll run, oh on I'll run
I ran for miles
through wooded heavy distance
With a mask of
chilling fog a'shielding me
But the chains I
bore proved far too much resistance
When I tried to
cross the river to be free
Now the cold wind
blows and trees sway in the distance
Like a choir of
angel voices keeping time
I lost myself crossing the Appalachians
There's a lonesome
heart somewhere in Caroline
