Charlie & the Kid

Was she feeling sentimental

The world's pink with colours I never knew

Life's not some picture on the shelf

It all moves on so does everyone else and

Wondering when will it fall apart

If she looked back she couldn't imagine herself

With a kid, and everything that comes with

But then again he's all she's got, she goes

And the kids at the wreck felt reckless

They'd burn petrol just to sleep

Charlie and her kid would sit there

Soaking up the heat

And in time she'd watch him grow up

To be a mirror image of herself

Damn fine and far too kind

With her own inebriation at the back of her mind but

Hey Charlie your kid is just like you

Hey kid you're just like Charlie to

But then again he's all she's got, she goes

And the kids at the wreck felt reckless

They'd burn petrol just to sleep

Charlie and her kid would sit there

Soaking up the heat

And she said "Son

You're all I've got

You're all I've got"
