lyrics

One way or another
I refuse to discover
How long it has been
How long we have left
How long we have tried
To mend fences, that are old and decrepit
And can’t stand the rains
Or divide us from pain any more

Sooner or later, with no change in the weather
The levees’ will break
How will we escape?
Where will we go?
My mama once told me
That I’d never be lonely
If I sang a song
And sang from my heart
And showed you my soul

But I never did
I never did until I met you
And I never will sing again for anyone
No Annie, just you

I’ll love you in the good times
If you’ll love me in the bad times
If you’ll love me today
We must go away
There is no time
The dark clouds, they are coming
Have no fear
But we are running a few steps behind
There’s not enough time
Take what you can’t leave behind
You have to decide right now

But I never did
I never did until I met you
And I never will sing again for anyone
No Annie, just you
No Annie, just you
