lyrics

I woke up in the Atlantic seven miles from shore
Too far to call for help and too near to wish for more
Oh brother what was this ambush
Oh sister what could it be
I pray for your forgiveness and I've only guilt to plea

Oh South Carolina I'll never join you
Your borders are banned to me
I'll let the islands protect you
As a barrier from we

I often think of crossing over the foothills
But choices aren't one sided and that thought leaves me still
Oh brother what was this ambush
Oh sister what could it be
I pray for your forgiveness and I've only guilt to plea

While I breathe I hope towards you
Palmetto State
An unrequited feeling
While I patiently wait
