Charlotte Sometimes - The Cure

All the faces

All the voices blur

Change to one face

Change to one voice

Prepare yourself for bed

The light seems bright

And glares on white walls

All the sounds of Charlotte sometimes

Into the night with

Charlotte sometimes

Night after night she lay alone in bed

Her eyes so open to the dark

The streets all looked so strange

They seemed so far away

But Charlotte did not cry

The people seemed so close

Playing expressionless games

The people seemed

So close

So many

Other names…

Sometimes I’m dreaming

Where all the other people dance

Sometimes I’m dreaming

Charlotte sometimes

Sometimes I’m dreaming

Expressionless the trance

Sometimes I’m dreaming

So many different names

Sometimes I’m dreaming

The sounds all stay the same

Sometimes I’m dreaming

She hopes to open shadowed eyes

On a different world

Come to me Scared princess

Charlotte sometimes

On that bleak track

(See the sun is gone again)

The tears were pouring down her face

She was crying and crying for a girl

Who died so many years before…

Sometimes I dream

Where all the other people dance

Sometimes I dream

Charlotte sometimes

Sometimes I dream

The sounds all stay the same

Sometimes I’m dreaming

There are so many different names

Sometimes I dream

Sometimes I dream…

Charlotte sometimes crying for herself

Charlotte sometimes dreams a wall around herself

But it’s always with love

With so much love it looks like

Everything else

Of Charlotte sometimes

So far away

Glass sealed and pretty

Charlotte sometimes
