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 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 for evermore? (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 for the last time Just the same as the last time Annie waits But not for me
