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 .
