Annie’s Song
Can I find the words to say, just what you mean to me today
And what you’ve meant to me, throughout these forty years gone by
We first met at that meet n greet, a low brick wall became our seat
And then you seemed to find me sweet and my heart skipped a beat
We lived so many miles apart; each inch a mile in my heart
But I’d have walked or stole a horse and cart
And letters, phone calls, weekend drives, sealed a bond in our two lives
A hundred miles would not keep us apart
I’m no Keats, I’m no Shelly; I’m no poet off the tele
So let me say a few words in a quite straightforward way
I love you
okay
And I love you more with every passing day
For we were always meant to be, it’s in the stars, our destiny
It’s me for you and you for me… eternally
I know this is true…
My heart beats just for you
And so today, my birthday girl, who still has my heart in a whirl
Without you my whole life would soon unfurl
I love you, you see… Anne, I hope that you can see
That there’s no way you can rid yourself of me
I’m no Keats, I’m no Shelly; I’m no poet off the tele
So let me say a few words in a quite straightforward way
I love you
okay
And I love you more with every passing day
