Annie Blue
You detonated my heart
There are bits scattered everywhere
In the folded pages of our favourite book
Down the sides of every chair
Still hooked up on you, Annie Blue
To a point where I couldn’t function
My exquisite form of self-destruction
How did I get in this position
Love falls and a submission
Still hooked up on you, Annie Blue
Days follow nights on this slow-moving train
Catch you next time in the midnight rain
You only loved me when you felt alone
Drama queen tears on your cheekbone
Still hooked up on you ,Annie Blue
Never saw the lies you were shaping and bending
It’s only the movies that have a happy ending
Tell me the truth girl, you must confess
I was always your maybe, you were always my yes
Sill hooked up on you, Annie Blue.
Look at me, I went to war with myself,
For you,
Listen to me, I broke all my own rules
For you,
Fed my tears, I ignored all the warning signs
For you,
Still in love with you, Annie Blue
Trying so hard to remember what I need to forget
Yet here I am, another shot of scotch and sunset
Maybe next time we’ll get this right
To find the courage to stand and fight
How the hell did we end up in this position
Love falls and a submission
Love falls and a submission
Love falls
Love fell
(J. Guinness 1984)
