Alice Merton Charlie Brown Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Small kid in a small town, lived with his head down
Good luck never came his way
Tragic in the makin', a heart full of achin'
Those thoughts never went away

[Pre-Chorus]
And when all you've known is your own four walls and they get so close
And it hurts 'cause you're so afraid, so afraid
So he kept runnin', ah, runnin', ah, runnin', ah, runnin' away
[Chorus]
Charlie Brown
Hold tight, we're movin' on
Keep that dream just a little bit longer
Charlie Brown
Hold tight, we're movin' on
Keep that dream just a little bit longer
Charlie Brown
Hold tight, we're movin' on
Keep that dream just a little bit longer
Charlie Brown
Hold tight, we're movin' on
Keep that dream just a littlе bit longer

[Verse 2]
Clean shave and a tiе on, he's takin' a ride on
A bus to town in a far-off land
Still stuck in the dirt, there was nothin' but hurt
Too bad that clothes don't make a man

[Pre-Chorus]
And you hold out hope that you might belong
Charlie Brown

[Chorus]
Charlie Brown
Hold tight, we're movin' on
Keep that dream just a little bit longer
Charlie Brown
Hold tight, we're movin' on
Keep that dream just a little bit longer
Charlie Brown
Hold tight, we're movin' on
Keep that dream just a little bit longer Charlie Brown
Hold tight, we're movin' on
Keep that dream just a little bit longer
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh
Hold tight, we're movin' on
Keep that dream just a little bit longer
Oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh
Hold tight, we're movin' on
Keep that dream just a little bit longer

[Bridge]
(You kept) Runnin' away, runnin' away (Oh-oh)
Runnin' away, runnin' away (Oh-oh)
Runnin' away, runnin' away (Oh-oh)
Runnin' away, runnin' away (Oh-oh)
(You kept) Runnin' away, runnin' away (Oh-oh)
Runnin' away, runnin' away (Oh-oh)
Runnin' away, runnin' away (Oh-oh)
Runnin' away

[Chorus]
Charlie Brown
Hold tight, we're moving on
Keep that dream just a little bit longer
Charlie Brown
Hold tight, we're moving on
Keep that dream just a little bit longer
Charlie Brown
Hold tight, we're moving on (Oh, oh, oh-oh)
Keep that dream just a little bit longer (Oh, oh, oh-oh)
Charlie Brown
Hold tight, we're moving on
Keep that dream just a little bit longer
[Outro]
Hold tight, we're moving on (Oh, oh, oh-oh)
Keep that dream just a little bit longer (Oh, oh, oh-oh)
Charlie Brown
Hold tight, we're moving on
Keep that dream just a little bit longer
