Lyrics Carolina Honey - Rachel Bochner

I run three blocks down Atlantic Avenue
Just to kiss you and kiss you
No time to catch my breath or wonder what
I've got myself into
And in the tail light glow I feel
The lovers that precede you
I think I'd give 'em all up if you asked me to
And I wish you, wish you would

Stay up a little later just to linger by my side
Effortlessly recite things that I could never write
Your metaphor bleeds into fact
When you put it like that

Darling, I'm in the palm of your hand
Don't know how but I need you now, I'll be damned
We know I can't stay, even if I want to
Carolina honey, can you tell me what to call you
Darling, I'm in the palm of your hand

It's no surprise I'm dreaming bout you
Sleeping in my t-shirt
I taste a sweetness in your voice
And every word you whisper
And when you walk me to your door
I drown, hook, line, and sinker
The type of tenderness I know is gunna
Kill me later

But if you promise that you'll think of me when you're alone
I'd capsize the boat and lean into your undertow
The metaphor bleeds into fact
And the water rises fast

Darling, I'm in the palm of your hand
Don't know how but I need you now, I'll be damned
We know I can't stay, even if I want to
Carolina honey, can you tell me what to call you
Darling, I'm in the palm of your hand

I look for you in every room
Sink my teeth into your perfume
Know what you are babe
Can you see right through me too

Darling, I'm in the palm of your hand
Don't know how but I need you now, I'll be damned
We know I can't stay, even if I want to
Carolina honey, can you tell me what to call you
Darling, I'm in the palm of your hand
