I found something crying; it was my soul
|
I fed it milk so it wouldn't grow old
|
We crossed the borderline at dawn
|
And woke up in a field of corn
|
My father told me I was late
|
I better start oiling the gate
|
Said that those that rush will fall
|
But I don't want to wait for waves
|
I don't want to wait at all
|
|
Annie, let's not wait
|
Let's cross the river now
|
We could sit for years
|
Staring at our fears
|
Oh they're such pretty things
|
They're so cute
|
But our dreams are all we really need
|
To grow
|
|
I found something dying; it was my light
|
It had resigned itself to night
|
So I threw it out a fishing line
|
And said catch your will and then catch mine
|
|
Annie, let's not wait
|
Let's cross the river now
|
We could sit for years
|
Staring at our fears
|
Oh they're such pretty things
|
They're so cute
|
But in the end they're just a suit
|
|
Oh annie let's not wait
|
Time's not on our side
|
Well it never was
|
You know that deep inside
|
Oh just look at you
|
With your ruffled hair
|
Oh I love you
|
And that's all you need to know
|
|
Annie annie
