Charlie

Charlie lives in a one room apartment With a mirror on the floor Sits down staring up at the ceiling Know's what he's looking for Try to hold on Charlie Your future is gone Charlie Try to be strong Charlie You've got to hang on Charlie Charlie lives in a one room apartment Lying on his bed Dreams of guns and distant thunder Ringing in his head Lost it on a road to nowhere Night of the blackened heat Ten men dead and one man sorry Crying to the beat Try to hold on Charlie Your future is gone Charlie Try to be strong Charlie You've got to hang on Charlie Hold on – social grace and a ministry Hold on - total waste impossibility Hold on – lost my face to a foreign land Hold on - took my heart and then my hand Try to hold on Charlie, Charlie Your future is gone Charlie Try to be strong Charlie, Charlie You've got to hang on Charlie Try to hold on Charlie, Charlie Your future is gone Charlie Try to be strong Charlie, Charlie You've got to hang on Charlie Hold on – social grace and a ministry Hold on - total waste impossibility Hold on – lost my face to a foreign land Hold on - took my heart and then my hand Charlie lives in a one room apartment With a mirror on the floor Sits down staring up at the ceiling Know's what he's looking for Memories of a burning summer Trying to forget Hoping for a bitter winter Frozen with regret Try to hold on Charlie Your future is gone Charlie Try to be strong Charlie You've got to hang on Charlie Try to hold on Charlie Your future is gone Charlie Try to be strong Charlie You've got to hang on Charlie
