I met a boy called charlie charlie

On the fourth of september last year

He was twenty-one, and once a teenage star

So sweet in the way he appeared, in the way he appeared


Charlie charlie

He was a trip into the wild and the free

Got high on drinks and being rock'n'roll dreams

We shared the days and nights 'til one morning he showed me


I fell in love with charlie charlie

It felt like the right thing to do

With his careless charm and his jaded eyes

I know you would have fallen too, you would have fallen too


Charlie charlie

He was a trip into the wild and the free

Got high on drinks and being rock'n'roll dreams

We shared the days and nights 'til one morning he showed me


Charlie charlie

Went for an errand at the end of the street

He stole my heart, but if you happen to meet

You tell him i don't want the money that he owes me


I just want to know what went through him

'Cause i could never know

Even though i thought i knew him

Charlie charlie, what are you doing to me?


Charlie charlie

He's got my credit card and hasn't been seen

He stole my heart, but if you happen to meet

You tell him i don't want the money - no, i just want him
