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
