And so
|
Annie waits, Annie waits, Annie waits
|
For a call
|
From a friend
|
The same
|
It’s the same
|
Was it always the same?
|
Annie waits for the last time
|
|
The clock never stops, never stops, never waits
|
She’s growing old
|
It’s getting late
|
And so he forgot, he forgot
|
Maybe not
|
Maybe he’s been seriously hurt
|
Would that be worse?
|
|
Headlights crest the hill
|
Shadows pass her by and out of sight
|
Annie sees her dreams:
|
Friday bingo, pigeons in the park
|
|
Annie waits for the last time
|
Just the same as the last time
|
|
Annie says “You see this is why I’d rather be alone.
|
And so
|
Annie waits, Annie waits, Annie waits
|
For a call
|
From a friend
|
The same
|
It’s the same
|
Was it always the same?
|
Annie waits as the last...
|
|
Headlights crest the hill
|
Who will be the one for evermore?
|
(ooh ooh)
|
Annie, I could be
|
If we’re both still lonely when we’re old
|
|
Annie waits for the last time
|
Just the same as the last time
|
Annie waits for the last time
|
Just the same as the last time
|
|
Annie waits
|
But not for me
|
