Moon, moon I can see you sinking low
You make me think of the sweetheart, a little girl that I love so
After I've wondered the whole night through wondering if you think of me
While I'm by my own some thinking of someone, I'm thinking only of you

My Carolina sunshine girl, you have turned my heart to stone
My Carolina sunshine girl, you have left me all alone

I wonder why I sit and cry
When I really should laugh as it's your old photograph
'Cause you're the sweetest angel in this world
And I love, love, I love you my Carolina sunshine girl

I wonder why I sit and cry
When I really should laugh, girl, at your little old photograph
'Cause you're the sweetest angel in this world
And I love, love, I love you my Carolina sunshine girl
