Miranda Lambert - Me And Charlie Talking lyrics

Your rating:
Me and Charlie boy used to go walking
Sitting 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 we'd have to wait
He said we'd never let our love run dry 
Like so many do these days

So, you treat our love like a firefly, like it only gets to shine 
For a little while
Catch it in a mason jar with holes in the top and run like hell 
To show it off
Oh, promises were made when we'd go walking
That's just me and Charlie talking

Charlie always said he'd like to leave here
He 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
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 
And then you look up and it's gone

So you treat your love like a firefly like it only gets to shine 
For a little while
Catch it in a mason jar with holes in the top and run like hell 
To show it off
Oh, promises were made when we go walking 
That's just me and Charlie talking

Now and then I sometimes think of Charlie 
How we thought we new 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 firefly like it only gets to shine 
For a little while
Catch it in a mason jar with holes in the top and run like hell 
To show it off
Oh, promises were made when we were walking 
That's just me and Charlie, me and Charlie talking

La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la
