Song information

Artist: Gil
Album: Here I Am

Lyrics

Cold nights in my empty place
I feel down, I feel down, I feel down
There's a girl who thought she knew my face
She put me down, put me down, put me down
Though I'm not gonna change for you everyday
I know my name, know my numbers
Know I'm much too late
I'm no superman, superface, superstar
But I'm not going on without you

Chorus

Charline is on my mind
Look at me, oh can't you see I'm blind
Your time for a little love
Is gonna make me see again
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
When I woke up that day
I had luck, I had luck, I had luck
Charline came down my way
With her eyes, with her smile, just for a walk
And she said, don't you like to be a simple man
With a feel for simple things and daily life
And I said: "sure I will, oh girl, I like you so
This is all I want, that I feel."

Chorus

Then I made a great invention
I got rich I got proud
For a few disgusting moments
I was wrong, I was bad, I've been outside
Oh charline why don't you hear me
Can't you see, I'm still the same
I feel cold, I feel lonely
And I'm not going on without you

Chorus
