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
