Carolina In My Mind Lyrics

Lyric discussion by PeytDav 

Cover art for Carolina In My Mind lyrics by James Taylor

To me he's simply writing about how he is home sick. He says "with a holy host of others standing 'round me, still I'm on the dark side of the moon." I believe he's saying even with all these people around him, he still feels so lonely because it's not home. I think it's a stretch to relate it to his addiction.
