Me And Charlie Talking

Me and Charlie boy used to go walking sittin in the woods behind my house When being lovers meant a stolen kiss and holding hands with nobody else around Charlie said he wanted to get married but we were only ten so wed have to wait He said wed never let our love run dry like so many do these days So we treat your love like a firefly like it only gets to shine for a little while Catch it in a mason jar and with holes in the top and run like hell to show it off Oh promises we made when wed go walkin thats just me and Charlie talking Charlie always said hed like to leave here so he turned eighteen and he left our sleepy town Letters came and went and I kept waiting for Charlie to come back and bring the life hed found Funny how time and distance change you the road you take dont always lead you home You can start a love with good intentions and then you look up and its gone So we treat your love like a firefly like it only gets to shine for a little while Catch it in a mason jar and with holes in the top and run like hell to show it off Oh the promises we made when we were walking thats just me and Charlie talking Now and then I sometimes think of Charlie and how we thought we new it all back then Now Id give anything to feel love from a childs heart again So we treat your love like a fire Fly like it only gets to shine for a little while Catch it in a mason jar and with holes in the top and run like hell to show it off Oh the promises we made when we were walking thats just me and Charlie talking La la la la la la La la la la la la la la La la la la la la
