[Verse 1]
After all these years
Can you tell me when you knew
The first time I made you smile
I saw a different side of you
And I prayed so hard that day
Maybe you had seen it too
So before you say the words
Let me tell you why I do

[Chorus]
When you laugh so loud you apologize
You get so worked up that you wanna cry
And you never say no, when someone's needing you
How you wear that smile every single day
But that look in your eyes always gives you away
I want to take that pain and carry it for you
Oh Charlie, I do

[Verse 2]
Can't believe how far we've come
Still a lifetime more to share
They say that you're foolish when you're young
So we made a perfect pair
All the time apart never stole our hearts, I will be yours anyway
When its all said and done, remember these words
Even when it hurts and I'm no longer there
[Chorus]
When you laugh so loud you apologize
You get so worked up that you wanna cry
And you never say no, when someone's needing you
How you wear that smile every single day
But that look in your eyes always gives you away
I want to take that pain and carry it for you
Oh Charlie, I

[Bridge]
I want you to know that
If i have to go back, I'll do it all the same
To end up right here, giving you my name
Won't take for granted, those second chances
Made so many mistakes
But choosing you
Was truly the best thing

[Chorus]
So when you laugh so loud don't apologize
Let me hold you close when you need to cry
I won't ask for too much
All I need is you
I'll take one more kiss every single day
Get so lost in your eyes that I can't look away
Spend all my days reminding you I do
Oh Charlotte, I love you
Oh, Charlie I love you
