Lyrics

Watch her as she flew, deep within the blue
A day out from the county, i.c.u
There's nothing you can do, someone gently says to you:
"The doctor says that now it won't be long."

Try and live up to the moment, and I hope that I don't blow it
What is in me that she hears?
Just a song she likes, her little arms around my neck
And a dying girl whispers in my ear

Tell me now, can you feel it?
I've been keeping company with ghosts
She comes to me, like a piece of summer
She comes to me on days when I need it most

Well summer dies, and nothing lasts forever
You're so fine, the way you stand up to your fears
Summer dies, and it's just moments we have together
I'd give my bones for you to get a few more years
For you and i
Oh, annie

More to life than trying to survive
Oh, annie

My boyfriend took pictures of me as I held you
Traveling alone, and the loneliness brings me to tears
Summer dies, and it's just moments we have together
I'd give my bones for you to get a few more years
For you and i
Oh, annie
More to life than trying to survive
Oh, annie

Stronger than the hands that hold you
You singalong to the song on the radio
If I drank too much, then I am wreckless
Just this once, would you forgive this?

Hold on, and days gone by
Tell me now, can you feel this?
I can't keep this all to myself
She's elegant, and she means it
No

Years, for you and i
Oh, annie
More to life than trying to survive
Oh, annie

Watch her as she flew, deep within the blue
Watch her as she slips away from you
I keep fingers crossed always for you
