Annalee Lyrics
I'm skipping stones
At the edge of the dock
A fog came rolling in
Quiet like a hawk
The river's so smooth
It could shatter with a rock
It felt like I was walking on water
Then the doctor's daughter
Came and dove right in
Lord Almighty
She's in nothing but skin
I could turn my head
But she may never come again
She's filling the sky
With her laughter
(Chorus)
Annalee
Annalee
You're shaking the timbers
You're rattling the leaves
Theres a full moon rising
In front of me
Come and stake your claim in my memory
Annalee
Annalee
Did the good Lord send you
Down to deliver me
Come lay your head in a bed of leaves
I am here, I am yours for the taking
Well, around about midnight
On a riverboat ride
I'm a mandolin jukebox
And Annie's at my side
One bottle empty
One waiting like a bride

She's dancing like light on the water
We've got six weeks till college
Six weeks and then we're gone
Oh, life is like a river
And the river's rolling on
So come on, Annie
You taste like brandy
Will you kiss me awake come morning?
I can't promise a lifetime of tomorrows
What tomorrow brings God only knows
I know this about tomorrow
We're filling it with sorrow
If we let tonight just end
