Charleston Nights – Wayne Orr

👀: 10

(Verse 1)
Well, I rolled into Charleston on a warm summer breeze,
Palmetto trees swayin’, life is easy here, you see,
Down on King Street, where the music’s always playin’,
Every corner’s got a story, every heart’s got somethin’ sayin’.

(Chorus)
Oh, Charleston nights, where the moonlight meets the shore,
From the Battery to Folly, can’t ask for nothin’ more,
With the cobblestone beneath my boots, I’m walkin’ history,
Charleston, South Carolina, you’re the one that’s callin’ me.

(Verse 2)
We danced down by the harbor, where the shrimp boats gently sway,
Caught a glimpse of Rainbow Row in the soft light of the day,
The smell of Lowcountry boil, driftin’ through the air,
In Charleston, South Carolina, got no worries, got no care.

(Bridge)
From the ghostly tales in the old graveyards,
To the sweet tea on the porches, life ain’t too hard,
Every sunset paints a picture, every sunrise starts anew,
In this Southern paradise, there’s always somethin’ to do.

(Verse 3)
Strolled the Waterfront Park, with the fountains in the glow,
Caught a horse-drawn carriage ride, where the old stories flow,
From the charm of the plantations to the beaches by the sea,
Charleston, oh Charleston, you’re where I want to be.

(Outro)
So here’s to Charleston nights, and the memories we’ll make,
With every laugh and every smile, there’s no heart you can’t take,
In the city by the ocean, where the past and present blend,
Charleston, South Carolina, I’ll love you ’til the end.
