Lyrics

[Verse 1]
All the faces, all the voices blur
Change to one face, change to one voice
Prepare yourself for bed
The light seems bright and glares on white walls
All the sounds of Charlotte sometimes
Into the night with Charlotte sometimes
[Verse 2]
Night after night, she lay alone in bed (Something's strange with Charlotte sometimes)
Her eyes so open to the dark (Something's strange with Charlotte sometimes)
The streets all looked so strange, they seemed so far away (Something's strange with Charlotte sometimes)
But Charlotte did not cry
[PreChorus]
The people seemed so close
To playing expressionless games
The people seemed so close
So many other names
[Chorus]
Sometimes I'm dreaming (Something's strange with Charlotte sometimes)
Where all the other people dance
Sometimes I'm dreaming (Something's strange with Charlotte sometimes)
Charlotte sometimes
Sometimes I'm dreaming (Something's strange with Charlotte sometimes)
Expressionless the trance
Sometimes I'm dreaming
[Bridge]
So many different names
Sometimes I'm dreaming
The sounds all stay the same
Sometimes I'm dreaming
She hopes to open shadowed eyes on a different world
Come to me scared princess, Charlotte sometimes
[Verse 3]
On that bleak track see the sun is gone again (Something's strange with Charlotte sometimes)
The tears were pouring down her face (Something's strange with Charlotte sometimes)
She was crying and crying for a girl who died (Something's strange with Charlotte sometimes)
So many years before
[Chorus]
Sometimes I dream
Where all the other people dance
Sometimes I dream
Charlotte sometimes
Sometimes I dream
The sounds all stay the same
Sometimes I'm dreaming
So many different names
Sometimes I dream, sometimes I dream
[Outro]
(Charlotte sometimes, Charlotte sometimes) Charlotte sometimes crying for herself
(Charlotte sometimes, Charlotte sometimes) Charlotte sometimes dreams a wall around herself
But it's always with love (Charlotte sometimes)
With so much love, it looks like everything else (Charlotte sometimes)
Of Charlotte sometimes (Charlotte sometimes)
So far away (Charlotte sometimes)
Glass sealed and pretty
Charlotte sometimes (Charlotte sometimes)
