Recover The Sunlight
A downbeat song. A few Nick drake inspired chord changes.
Unravel the Moonlight
Unfollow the day
Recover the sunlight
It's showing the way
You'll spend the whole time alone, alone

Words undone together
Lives falling apart
Keep fighting the moment
Go back to the start.
You'll spend the whole time alone, alone
You'll bring the whole world home, today.

Charlie is a modern day jester, fool, pied piper, call him what you will. He nods back to Charlie Chaplin, Buster Keaton, Laurel n Hardy....bygone heroes.
Ollie's stuff..
