Annie
Lyricist:Jonatha Brooke
Annie, I hope things line up for you All in a row, shiny and new You can't keep on living in one small room When you never let anyone in You never let anyone in
And Annie, you think the whole world's been cruel All the stars took advantage of you Your mother was cold and your daddy'd no love So you stomped your feet till they noticed You stomped your feet till they put on the kid gloves
Now they're walking on eggshells, they're walking on glass Sing hallelujah each time that you pass And someday you'll pick yourself up off your ass and go
And Annie you think the boys never played fair Tripping you up, sticking gum in your hair Wherever you run, it's yourself you face there And he might be gone when you need him And he might be long gone when you find you care
'Cause he's walking on eggshells, he's walking on glass Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com He sings you a lullaby each time you ask And someday you'll pick yourself up off your ass and go
And Annie, I love you, that's always been clear It's the layers of history that won't let us hear The twisted compassion that's burning our ears The distance from there to here The distance from there to here
'Cause I'm walking on eggshells, I'm walking on glass We sing you a lullaby each time you ask And someday you'll pick yourself up off your ass and go
'Cause you're gambling again and the stakes are too high Your ante is fear and my bet is desire Took you far from the truth and into the fire again
And Annie, I hope things line up for you All in a row, shiny and new You can't keep on living in one small room When you never let anyone in You never let anyone in, you never let anyone in You never let anyone in
