Annie Told Me

(album: Shock - 1985)

She sleeps so lightly
Almost like she's never slept before
Awakes in the night
In the heat of the night
She's not asleep at all

In the heat of the night
She wakes in a terrible fright
She talks about the future
Yet to come
In the heat of the night

Annie told me
Annie told me
Annie told me
It's alright

She walks here in day dreams
Sees things that you wouldn't
See at all
Everything seems too clear
She holds it all so near
But it's not here at all

Annie told me
Annie told me
Annie told me
It's alright
Annie told me
Annie told me
Annie told me
It's alright

The morning will come
She looks at me with knowing eyes
In the morning that's new
All the things she said come true
She tells no lies

Annie told me
Annie told me
Annie told me
It's alright
Annie told me
Annie told me
Annie told me
Tonight
