Sweet Annie

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I've been burning bright For so long I can't remember Pretty girls and late night bars seem to be my line of work Believe me when I say, I can't stay this high forever This man has had all he can stand, time to lay this body down [Chorus] Sweet Annie Can I stay with you a while? 'Cause this road's been putting miles on my heart Sweetheart I've been living in a fantasy But one day, lightning will strike And my bark will lose its bite But don't give up on me Sweet Annie [Verse 2] Sweet Annie I know I promised you a life But with an empty bed and the words I said don't carry any weight If I could take back yesterday, find a way to start it over Turn around, put that bottle down and I'd pray it's not too late [Chorus] Sweet Annie Can I stay with you a while? 'Cause this road's been putting miles on my heart Sweetheart I've been living in a fantasy But one day, lightning will strike And my bark will lose its bite But don't give up on me What will be will be Sweet Annie [Verse 3] Turn out the light These hands they long to hold you Fall all over you All over again Come a little closer so I can show you My heart still beats fast for you All over, and over again [Chorus] Sweet Annie Can I stay with you a while? 'Cause this road's been putting miles on my heart Sweetheart I've been living in a fantasy But one day, lightning will strike And my bark will lose its bite But don't give up on me Sweet Annie
