Sometimes I like awake and wander in a dream And wonder how my life with her Could have been
She was just an open book With travel on her mind
I promised her a life she didn't know If she would go
We ran away from memories of pain
Danced across the world Hoping for a love that never came
So let's turn around and see That the future is in you and me
It's all in our minds As long as we find the time And we'll throw away the past For a feeling that we hope will last I thought we could try
How could I believe in a bigger lie
Annie did you have to run away Did you believe that there was nothing left to say You made a prisoner of me and then you set me free Turned every moment to a sea of gray I'm living in a world of yesterday 'Cause there's a part of me that needs to hide away From all the tragedy I see staring back at me Whenever love begins to look my way
And so I go on wasting summer in the cold While all about me April leaves are growing old
I sat amid an empty room Awash in fantasy
With visions of an angel Moving slowly out to sea
I called across the waves but she was gone
Soaring on the wind Clinging to a dream to meet the dawn So it's time to rearrange And get used to what I haven't got
As long as I know
It's better to love than not I may find it all again And get caught up in a new surprise The future is here
Then I fall apart as I realize
Annie did you have to run away Did you believe that there was nothing left to say You made a prisoner of me and then you set me free Turned every moment to a sea of gray I'm living in a world of yesterday
'Cause there's a part of me that needs to hide away From all the tragedy I see staring back at me Whenever love begins to look my way
Annie did you have to run away Did you believe that there was nothing left to say You made a prisoner of me and then you set me free Turned every moment to a sea of gray I'm living in a world of yesterday
'Cause there's a part of me that needs to hide away From all the tragedy I see staring back at me Whenever love begins to look my way
Another chapter ends and autumn reappears
As glistening wishes fade away through the years
And darling if you fall in love another day
Don't give the best of you away...
