Lyrics Big Country – Charlotte

It wasn’t in her diary
It wasn’t in her stars
She didn’t hear it at the mall
It only makes things worse

Charlotte’s in her ice box
Needs someone to blame
Another slice of chocolate cake
Helps to ease the pain

He used to buy her underwear
She loved to wear it too
While he would always talk so nice
And she pretended too

They saw the world together
But always in the dark
Three hours in the limousine
To find a place to park

Charlotte’s in her ice box
Needs someone to blame
Another slice of chocolate cake
Helps to ease the pain

They lived a million miles apart
Between a dozen blocks
So sometimes she would call him up
But he would never talk

Charlotte’s in her ice box
Needs someone to blame
Another slice of chocolate cake
Helps to ease the pain

(Charlotte’s in her ice box
Needs someone to blame

She never saw him Sundays
He spends time with his kids
And they swore things would never change
But now she knows they did
