Description
I thought I should contribute something again, so I've taken a break from recording my EP to put down a rough demo of this song.
I wrote this for my cousin Matt when his first child, Charlie, was born.
This is pretty rough but you'll get the idea.

Lyrics
Charlie was running late tonight
And everyone was waiting for news that she'd arrived
We haven't met her yet, but she is one of us alright
It's all good tonight
"She's beautiful" he said, looking at his baby
One of a million times
You're beautiful he thought, for giving me this angel
Who's landed in my arms
Charlie, she looked around the room
She didn't know the faces but she knew she was home
Everything had changed, but somehow it all seemed familiar
She could recognise their love anywhere
"She's beautiful" he said, looking at his baby
One of a million times
You're beautiful he thought, for giving me this angel
Who's landed in my arms
Charlie, she didn't understand what all the fuss was about
The burden of anxiety was lifted away
By someone so small and innocent
"She's beautiful" he said, looking at his baby
One of a million times
You're beautiful he thought, for giving me this angel
Who's landed in my arms
And everyone was waiting for news that she'd arrived
We haven't met her yet, but she is one of us alright
It's all good tonight
"She's beautiful" he said, looking at his baby
One of a million times
You're beautiful he thought, for giving me this angel
Who's landed in my arms
Charlie, she looked around the room
She didn't know the faces but she knew she was home
Everything had changed, but somehow it all seemed familiar
She could recognise their love anywhere
"She's beautiful" he said, looking at his baby
One of a million times
You're beautiful he thought, for giving me this angel
Who's landed in my arms
Charlie, she didn't understand what all the fuss was about
The burden of anxiety was lifted away
By someone so small and innocent
"She's beautiful" he said, looking at his baby
One of a million times
You're beautiful he thought, for giving me this angel
Who's landed in my arms

Mate, this is a lesson in tight, close harmony, tight lyrics and vox in
general. It is yet another one of yours which could grow way beyond
this already wonderful incarnation! Shades of The Whitlams and
Crowded House, but with your own inimitable vocal and lyrical stylings.
This will have people heaping superlatives at you - allow me to be the
first - excellent!!
