Me and Charlie boy used to go walkin'
Sittin 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 10 so we'd have to wait
He said we'd never let our love run dry
Like so many do these days.
So we 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
Runnin' like hell
to show it off
O,oh promises were made when we'd go walking
thats just me and Charlie talking
Charlie always said he'd like to leave here
Turned 18 and he 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'll look up and its gone.
So you treat your love like a fire fly
Like it only gets to shine
For a little while
Catch it in a mason jar with holes in the top
Runnin' like hell
To show it off
O,oh promises were made when we'd go walking
Thats just me and Charlie talking.
Now and then I sometimes think of Charlie
And how we thought we knew it all back then.
Now I'd give anything to feel the love
From a child's heart again
So we treat our love like a fire fly
Like it only gets to shine
For a little while
Catch it in a mason jar with holes in the top
Runnin' like hell
To show it off
O, oh promises were made when we'd go walking
Thats just me and Charlie
Me and Charlie talking
La la la la la la La la la la la la la la
