Charlie was a dancer
At ten years old,
Charlie was a dancer
In his dreams
He loved to watch old movies
With his mother there,
He loved to watch old movies
With Fred Astaire
Dance, Charlie, Dance,
You might never get the chance,
Dance, Charlie, Dance,
In your dreams
Charlies fourteenth birthday
Would have been today
His mother sits alone and you can hear her say
And you can hear her say
Dance, Charlie, Dance,
You might never get the chance,
Dance, Charlie, Dance,
In your dreams
