all the faces
all the voices blur
change to one face
change to one voice
prepare yourself for bed
the light seems bright
and glares on white walls
all the sounds of
charlotte sometimes
into the night with
charlotte sometimes
night after night she lay alone in bed
her eyes so open to the dark
the streets all looked so strange
they seemed so far away
but charlotte did not cry
the people seemed so close
playing expressionless games
the people seemed
so close
so many
other names...
sometimes i'm dreaming
where all the other people dance
sometimes i'm dreaming
charlotte sometimes
sometimes i'm dreaming
expressionless the trance
sometimes i'm dreaming
so many different names
sometimes i'm dreaming
the sounds all stay the same
sometimes i'm dreaming
she hopes to open shadowed eyes
on a different world
come to me
scared princess
charlotte sometimes
on that bleak track
(see the sun is gone again)
the tears were pouring down her face
she was crying and crying for a girl
who died so many years before...
sometimes i dream
where all the other people dance
sometimes i dream
charlotte sometimes
sometimes i dream
the sounds all stay the same
sometimes i'm dreaming
there are so many different names
sometimes i dream
sometimes i dream...
charlotte sometimes crying for herself
charlotte sometimes dreams a wall around herself
but it's always with love
with so much love it looks like
everything else
of charlotte sometimes
so far away
glass sealed and pretty
charlotte sometimes

Review about Charlotte Sometimes Charlotte Sometimes | Reviewer: Hallowed | 10/28/09
The Cure came into my life in the late 80's. Their music is unlike any other that I heard. Maybe Earth Wind And Fire. I love the way you can feel the emotion of the music and the arrangements. Charlotte Sometimes is one of my favorites, I still Enjoy Facination Street, Plainsong, Disintergration, 1000 Hours, Like Cockatoos, A Night Like This, Sinking, The Hanging Garden, Burn, Apart, Doing the Unstuck, Closedown, Last Dance, Same Deep Water As You, and Caterpillar. The Greatest of all is when I Youtube videos that I never knew exists. Heal Your Heart Everyone. Peace
Glad young people like them | Reviewer: Winston | 9/1/09
Guess I am feeling older seeing that some really young people are posting here. You make proud! :-) I loved The Cure since 1987. I just can't believe they are still putting out haunting melody after melody after all these years. "Charlotte Sometimes" is probably their best early song...although I also love "A Forest".
Amazing song! | Reviewer: Ang | 4/18/09
I have always loved the book (by the same title) that inspired these wonderful lyrics, and Robert has managed to capture the haunting atmosphere the book always made me feel. This song is truly a masterpiece and is my favorite Cure song.
The live version from the "Concert" album 1984.. | Reviewer: dave | 1/26/08
..stands a good chance of being the best bit of culture in recent centuries. Fresh young Robert perfected dream language and sounds in a truly surreal experience. The band worked incredibly well that magic night; they had the help of higher powers. Even the audience screaming before and after adds. Hear the keyboard, the bass; fall into the dream.
WOW... you have top hear the live version of this song from "Paris" cd.... AMAZING!! One of the best live Cure songs (Along with "from the edge of the deep green sea" from "Show" album)

beauty unsurpassed | Reviewer: Laura | 7/23/07
One of the most forlorn, haunting and beautiful songs ever written. Robert Smith may be silly, but his silliness is well appreciated here!
..she lays alone in bed.. | Reviewer: Lullaby | 7/15/07
I adore this song, the combination of its lyics and its sound.. It's like feeling lost in an empty and intimate place..That's how I feel when all the people look the same.. and the streets.. Charlotte sometimes crying for herself..
perfect song | Reviewer: Charlotte J. | 7/9/07
