Charyse

What the hell happened to me

Forget about everything you heard

Its such a sickening scene

Comin back to this Charyse

If we get picked up by police

You'll tell me I'm your one and only

Cuz there's a mark on my cheek

And you put kisses on my neck

And said we don't have to speak

I don't expect a single thing

But now my patience is cheap

I ll give anything to not be lonely

Say Charyse

I couldn't take it

Couldn't stand just to see you

Sleeping out on the street

No I couldn't leave ya

Couldn't leave you lying like you're dead

On the cold concrete

Goin to the South Side

Wait at the station

And wake up in a stranger's seat

It doesn't matter to me

You never did it for me

No Charyse

Charyse

So now you're takin off your shirt

And wrap the baby in a sheet

It's such a desperate thing

Between your elbow and your fingers

And on the back of your knees

The symbol of the resurrection

Say Charyse

I couldn't take it

Couldn't stand just to see you

Sleeping out on the street

No I couldn't leave ya

Couldn't leave you lying like you're dead

On the cold concrete

Goin to the South Side

Wait at the station

And wakin up in a stranger's seat

It doesn't matter to me

You never did it for me

No Charyse

Charyse

I saw this thing on TV

About these kids in California

Who ended up with HIV

They didn't have any family

It scared the shit outta me

I'm still thinkin about it six months later

Oh you got a gorgeous face babe

I only wanted to get close

You always push me away

You said you wanna fix it up

Well that's way too late

So just please don't do me any favors

Say Charyse

I couldn't take it

Couldn't stand just to see you

Sleeping out on the street

No I couldnt leave ya

Couldn't leave you lying like you're dead

On the cold concrete

Goin to the South Side

Wait at the station

And wakin up in a stranger's seat

You never did it for me

Doesn't matter to me

No Charyse

Charyse

One more, one more .last time .
