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
