Amy Dalley Me And Charlie Talking Lyrics

Me And Charlie Talking Lyrics

Me and Charlie boy used to go walkin

Sittin in the woods behind my house

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 we'd have to wait

Said we'd never let our love run dry

like so many do these days



So we treat our love like a fire fly

Like it only gets to shine

For a little while

Catch it in a mason jar with holes in the top

Run like hell

To show it off

The promises we made when we'd go walkin 

Thats just me and Charlie talkin



Charlie always said he'd like to leave here

Turned eighteen and left our sleepy town

Letters came and went and I kept waiting 

For Charlie to come back

And bring the life he'd found 

It's funny how time and distance change you

The road you take don't always lead you home

You can start a love with good intentions

then you look up and it's gone



So you treat your love like a fire fly

Like it only gets to shine

For a little while

Catch it in a mason jar with holes in the top

Run like hell

To show it off

The promises we made when we'd go walkin 

Thats just me and Charlie talkin



Now and then I sometimes think of Charlie

How we thought we knew it all back then

Now I'd give anything to feel love

from a child's heart again



So you treat your love like a fire fly 

Like it only gets to shine

For a little while

Catch it in a mason jar with holes in the top

Run like hell

To show it off

The promises we made when we'd go walkin 

Thats just me and Charlie 

Me and Charlie talkin
