Chorus
Hush hush, sweet Charlotte
Charlotte, don't you cry
Hush hush, sweet Charlotte

He held two roses within his hand
Two roses he gave to you
The red rose tells you of his passion
The white rose his love so true

Sharing a vow
Never to part
I'm so afraid to close my eyes;
Afraid that I'll find
That this lovely thrill
Is just a silly illusion
With my eyes wide open, I'm dreaming...

Pinch me to prove I'm awake
