Annie Waits

And so

Annie waits, Annie waits, Annie waits

For a call

From a friend

The same

It's the same

Was it always the same?

Annie waits for the last time

Oh, oh

The clock never stops, never stops, never waits

She's growing old

It's getting late

And so he forgot, he forgot

Maybe not

Maybe he's been seriously hurt

Would that be worse?

Headlights crest the hill

Shadows pass her by and out of sight

Ooh, ooh

Annie sees her dreams

Friday bingo, pigeons in the park

Annie waits for the last time

Just the same as the last time

Annie says you see, this is why I'd rather be alone

And so

Annie waits, Annie waits, Annie waits

For a call

From a friend

The same

It's the same

Was it always the same?

Annie waits as the last

Headlights crest the hill

Who will be the one forevermore?

Ooh ooh

Annie, I could be

If we're both still lonely when we're old

Annie waits for the last time

Just the same as the last time

(Annie waits) Annie waits for the last time

(Annie waits) Just the same as the last time

Annie waits

But not for me
