Miss Charmer

With a spring in your step you'd cruise through the decade
All those blank expressions would ride you to a serenade
With a roll queued up behind your eyes
And a quip or two primed to fire with a smile
Looks like you've traded all the charisma for early nights
And now those amp-blasting weekends are "impolite"
You still want to try and wander down to that disco though
See if you can't bring up those moves from years ago

Miss Charmer, it's been nice
You know, it's been a little while
Since the last time you tried

All those little jokes you had on the tip of your tongue
Those sharp remarks you'd use to impress and stun
Have they all retired in favour of a side eye?
You'll spend no time dragging out a goodbye
When a run becomes a walk down a boulevard
It's hard to know where you're supposed to start
If you want to retreat back into that golden time
The mirror will take one look and tell you otherwise

Miss Charmer, it's been nice
You know, it's been a little while
Since the last time you tried

Pleasantries on the shoreline
Smell the sea and ask yourself why

You're getting older and that vodka doesn't go down as easily
Don't wait for your knees to start to creak
Before you try again
Miss Charmer
You know, it's been a little while
