Annie

[00:08.29] Watch her as she flew deep within the blue
[00:12.49] A day out from the county ICU
[00:16.89] There's nothing you can do
[00:18.72] Someone gently says to you
[00:21.13] The doctor says that now it won't be long
[00:24.88] I try and live up till the moment and I hope that I don't blow it
[00:29.65] And what is it in me that she hears?
[00:33.94] It's just a song she likes
[00:35.70] Her little arms around my neck
[00:38.09] And a dying girl whispers in my ear
[00:43.16]
[00:53.12] Tell me now, can you feel it?
[00:59.78] I've been keeping company with ghosts
[01:07.95] She comes to me like a piece of summer
[01:16.52] She comes to me on the days when I need it most
[01:24.41] Well summer dies and nothing lasts forever
[01:33.52] And you're so fine, the way you stand up to your fears
[01:42.19] The summer dies, and it's just moments we have together
[01:50.87] I'd give my bones for you to get a few more years
[01:57.05] For you and I, oh Annie
[02:03.84] More to life than trying to survive, oh Annie
[02:12.21] My boyfriend took pictures of me as I held you
[02:20.66] I travel alone, and the loneliness brings me to tears
[02:29.20] The summer dies, and it's just moments we have together
[02:37.98] I'd give my bones for you to get a few more years
[02:44.16] For you and I, oh Annie
[02:50.98] More to life than trying to survive, oh Annie
[02:59.34] Stronger than the hands that hold you
[03:03.48] You sing along to the song on the radio
[03:07.62] If I drank too much and I am reckless
[03:12.35] Just this once would you forgive this
[03:16.56] And hold on, the days gone by
[03:27.21] Tell me now, can you feel it?
[03:33.75] I can't keep this all to myself
[03:41.85] She's elegant and she means it, no
[03:52.61]
[03:59.13] Years for you and I, oh Annie
[04:07.98] More to life than trying to survive, oh Annie
[04:16.24] I watch her as she flew deep within the blue
[04:20.50] I watch her as she slips away from you
[04:25.03] I'll keep fingers crossed always for you
[04:36.54]
