Charlie's Smile

Silence! The darkest morning Snow has fallen through the cold, cold night Grab a cup of tea And soon it's time to be Out on my way I look into his room His eyes wide open And then Charlie smiles Roasting! In Hell's kitchen Half way through my day, six more hours to go Waiters keep a-running Checks-on keep a-coming It never ends There's a photo on the wall Eyes of blue And I see Charlie's smile Bitter! In the cold wind Sleet in my face; I'm on my way back home Key is in the door Coat hung in the hall It's good to be here And waiting in the room His eyes wide open And then Charlie smiles As I walk into the room Eyes of blue and I see Charlie's smile I see Charlie's smile
