Verse 1
She grew up down in Greenville where the pine trees kiss the sky
Barefoot on the backroads, Carolina in her eyes
Learned to hide her hurt behind a sweet “I’m doing fine”
While the church bells rang on Sunday and she cried on Friday nights
Pre-Chorus
But the summer rain came pouring through her soul
Like the rivers running wild through the Carolina shoals
Chorus
Now she’s learning how to dance in her own blue jeans
Driving down Highway 25 feeling free
Ain’t waiting on nobody to tell her what she’s worth
She found a little peace right here in Southern dirt
With every scar and every tear she’s been through
She’s finally seeing herself the way the good Lord do
Yeah, she’s learning to love herself again
Down in South Carolina wind
Verse 2
She’d sit out by Lake Hartwell with the moonlight on the waves
Thinking maybe broken hearts were just something you can’t save
Then she heard an old guitar playing soft through an open barroom door
And something in that melody made her believe once more
Pre-Chorus
Now every sunset burning over those red clay roads
Feels a little more like healing letting go
Chorus
Now she’s learning how to dance in her own blue jeans
Driving down Highway 25 feeling free
Ain’t waiting on nobody to tell her what she’s worth
She found a little peace right here in Southern dirt
With every scar and every tear she’s been through
She’s finally seeing herself the way the good Lord do
Yeah, she’s learning to love herself again
Down in South Carolina wind
Bridge
From Charleston tides to mountain pines
She’s piecing back together all the shattered parts inside
And every star above the Carolina night
Reminds her she was born to shine
Final Chorus
Now she’s laughing louder than the pain she knew
Blooming like the dogwoods do in June
No, she don’t need saving, she just needed time
To hear her own heart beating in the quiet
And every road that led her through the blue
Brought her back to someone strong and true
Yeah, she’s learning to love herself again
Outro
Somewhere beneath those Carolina skies
She finally found herself tonight…
