charlie

Charlie speaks, she barely moves her mouth
 Gotta listen close, or you're gonna miss out
 When you catch her, what you get is more than words
 She'll open up your mind to a whole new world
 Never thought we'd have a chance to make it out
 Told a joke to cheer them up, and they're all crying now
 Her mood is nice and easy like a breeze
 I like it when she presses close up on me in the heat
 It's cool, and it's nice
 And it feels so good to stay up all night
 Just to hear what she'll say
 And her words stick like glue to the walls of my brain
 ♪
 When we take our walks in the park, we run
 And it feels like it's over before it's begun
 When we're done, we clarify it's all for fun
 Look off to the side, shade our eyes, avert the sun
 Never thought we'd have a chance to make it out
 Told a joke to cheer them up, and they're all crying now
 I'd give her whatever that she needs
 I'll sit patiently, and I'll wait for the day she leaves
 Come on Charlie, a little louder
 I say as I hear her singing out from the shower
 Come on Charlie, we all know that song
 It's the sound of someone moving on
 And it calls, and it begs
 Like the movie in my head
 When you said your options were all fed
 So you left
 And the trail you left's a mess
 But it's your mess
 And I like it the best
 The best mess
 Yes, your mess is the best, oh yes, yes
 ♪
 I know how this ends
 Cordial and kind we play pretend
 In the end, I think that's fine
 'Cause you and I had a very nice time
