Annie Leaving
It's closing in on Annie's breath
She's precious but so strong
She knows I'll keep her to my death
I guess she’ll think that's wrong
Annie left me still asleep
I woke up in a war
I never knew a soldier's weep
To be love’s lost encore
Chorus
You should know the ways I wait for her
Now I wait by moving on
I see each way that she'll occur
And then every way she's gone
In every way she's gone
It's closing in on Annie's kiss
The sweetest I have known
The touch from her is only his
And mine was just a loan
Annie went to make love true
She's off to find a man
If she says she's in love with you
Please love her the best you can
She did not need a force to go
From nothing but her will
Now Annie's gone, I truly know
'Cause time is standing still
