Vanessa Carlton - Annie Lyrics
Watch her as she flew deep within the blueThe day out from the county I see youThere's nothing you can doSomeone gently says to youThe doctor says that now it won't be longI try and live up til the moment and I hope that I don't blow itAnd what is it in me that she hears?It's just a song she likesHer little arms around my neckAnd a dying girl whispers in my earTell me now can you feel it?I've been keeping company with thoseShe comes to me like a piece of summerShe comes to me on the days when I need it mostWell summer dies and nothing lasts foreverAnd you're so fine, the way you stand up to your fearsThe summer dies and its just moments we have togetherI'd give my bones for you to get a few more yearsFor you and me, oh AnnieMore than life than trying to survive, oh AnnieMy boyfriend took pictures of me as I held youI travel alone and the loneliness brings me to tearsThe summer dies and it's just moments we have togetherI'd give my bones for you to get a few more yearsFor you and I, oh AnnieMore to life than trying to survive, oh AnnieStronger than the hands that hold youYou sing along to the song on the radioIf I drank too much when I am with thisJust this once would you forgive thisAnd hold on, the days gone byTell me now can you feel it?I can't keep this all to myselfShe's elegant and she means it, noYears for you and I, oh AnnieMore to life than trying to survive, oh AnnieWatch her as she flew deep within the blueWatch her as she sips away from youI'll keep fingers crossed always for you
