Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Heading out this morning into the sun
Riding on the diamond waves, little darling one
Warm wind caress her, her lover, it seems
Oh, Annie, Dreamboat Annie, ship of dreams
Oh, Annie, Dreamboat Annie, little ship of dreams
[Verse 2]
Going down the city sidewalk alone in the crowds (Lone)
No one knows the lonely one whose head's in the clouds (Head)
Sad faces painted over with those magazine smiles
Heading out to somewhere, won't be back for a while (Back for a while, for a while)
[Outro]
Won't be back for a while (Back for a while, for a while)
Won't be back (Back for a while, for a while)
Won't be back, ooh (Back for a while, for a while)
Won't be back
