So Carolina, won't you wait
I've spent a lifetime
here in space, my love
The city calls, the city hurts
the city people in this world
they've got to know
Draw a line, take it back
from all the places that we've had
they've got to know
Because up on the Southside
when it gets colder
feel this kind of hype.
Up on the Southside
is where I saved a life.
My senses won't you
leave me now, to walk out
Throw down the bottle
to the ground, to the ground
I see the lightning in your eyes
another place for us to hide
I don't want to go
The day is here,
it's black and white,
pretty close but out of sight
I don't need to know
Because up on the Southside
when it gets colder
feel this kind of hype.
Up on the Southside
is where I saved a life.
And everyone's watching,
people are talking,
I know got it all
And up on the Southside
is where I saved a life,
saved a life.
So Carolina, won't you wait.
And everyone's watching,
people are talking,
I know got it all
And up on the Southside
is where I saved a life, saved a life
