Charlotte was another slow original by Sheena that got injected with a little "Nawlins flavor. William was given a complete green-light to add an improper (and completely appropriate) amount of cowbell.
Lyrics
There's not enough room in this town For the two of us So I'm on my way down to Charlotte To make room for us And that means you'll stay here and not be with me For a long time And maybe someday we might cross paths But you won't cross mine And you'll never see how bright the sunlight makes my skin on a warm summer's day And you'll never know how good you had it until the day you wish I was there There's not enough time in a day For silly goodbyes So I'll make my way out through the back door Before I see you cry And no I'm not sayin' that this is right 'Cause who am I to say? But if it means that I will be free of you Well hell then come what may And you'll never glimpse the stars twinkling bright in my eyes on a cold winter's night And you'll never know how good you had it until the day you wish I was there There ain't, ain't enough thought in my mind To dwell on past mistakes And it's my mission to keep my head up and live with all the decisions that I make So before you become but another one I think I'll hit the brakes To recognize that I wasn't wrong for you was not, not, not, not, not the hardest thing Still you'll never see how much my smile lights up a room on a dark gloomy day And you'll never know how good you had it until the day you wish I was there
