Getting Old
Annie Williams
Woke up thought of you Walked to my bathroom Take a look in the mirror Here I go another year Drive past all the blocks Always wishing I could walk Guess I’ll have to wait Till I hit my retirement phase Ahhh All my doors open at once And I go and screw it up And I know if I threw it away You’d still be my baby Ahhh

Midnight
Annie Williams
Have you seen my dog? Have you seen my dog? I called his name Maybe he ran away we talked today And you didn't say a thing There goes a night and another day We walk to mass sit under the cross You talk so low You let me know he's gone My tears they come And they don't take it away So confused For loving my dog Oh my god Hanging on the cross He was staring down At your hands so full of shit 10 years old No hand to hold The years have passed But I've never lost my love

Visitor
Annie Williams
I showed up at your door Provoking unearned scorn I always seem to ruin your day I always seem to get in your way I was so young Oh how oh how How am I gonna visit now, love? Just let go of it Just let go How am I gonna visit now, love? Just let go of it Just let go Your fear showed all its horns All fire no remorse I wanna forget what you did But I cannot move on with it hid I was just a kid I was just a kid How am I gonna visit now, love? Just let go of it Just let go How am I gonna visit now, love? Just let go of it Just let go Just let go Your treated your cat nicer than me And it was always so mean You kept me at a distance but while I was just a kid you never explained why How am I gonna visit now, love? Just let go of it Just let go How am I gonna visit now, love? Just let go of it Just let go Just let go

Louise
Annie Williams
Picked you up we left for the weekend Drove till night Pulled into some bar without thinkin’ Harlan took you It wasn’t right I pulled the gun never thinking twice Now he’ll never touch any gal Again thanks to us Oh God, I was starving But this new pain Has me started Past the old lie That there is just one way The sun is rising now and we’re on our way When we crossed that state line Choking back all my fears Driving under desert sky You and me Open up our eyes this time The years start to fall away And the best thing that I’ve ever seen in front of me Oh in front of me, and they years fall away in the side mirror Giving us a new start I’m hitting the gas so hard You’re living this time, I’m living this time Oh I know I know I know I know Oh I know I know I know I know You and me, you and me you and me, you and me

Fantasy You're Fine
Annie Williams
I can pretend you lasted longer than your darkest day Your storm came and went You’re fine, you are ok On your feet, on your feet Up again, you’re on your feet I can pretend Your stars are out And You can tell me how Reality is, you stayed awake up all night Your darkest wave won the fight Your fight Up all night, up all night, Up all night, your darkest night Full of dark, full of night You’re on your feet, You’re on your feet, Up on your feet, You’re on your feet And I can feel you with me on my feet, I’m on my feet Up all night, Up all night, I’m on my feet again Oh I, up all night, up all night I’m on my feet, I’m on my feet, I’m on my feet, I’m on my feet on my feet, on my feet again On your feet, on your feet

Oh My Love
Annie Williams
Oh my Love Oh my Love Oh my Love Oh my Love This is another earth This is another sea Though you feel like running Remember to watch your feet Oh my Love Oh my Love The hour glass is ticking Don’t let it go to your head You got so much going Its ok to take a rest Oh my love Oh my Love Oh my Love Oh my Love No such thing as strong now No such thing as who you need to be Just keep on listening to those things that are bubbling up from your deep Oh my love Oh my Love Oh my Love Oh my Love

Lover Like You
Annie Williams
I see your face we're shaking hands and I know myself I'll think about you all night long and I won’t look back You and I talk for hours, it's easy now it's easy now But I can not tell. this hasn't happened to me that many times before So, I lie lie lie lie to myself I don't want anybody else No one needs a lover like you A lover like you So, I go alone Except for the times I hear your name I hear it once, it follows me all over the place You and I talk for hours it’s easy now, it’s easy now Can you tell? you're knocking down all the walls of my defense So, I lie lie lie lie lie lie to myself I don't need anybody else No one needs a lover like you A lover like you

Gemini
Annie Williams
Did you land in New York Last night like you said you were Did you cross the shore Last night like you said you were Did you take your time With her like you did before Did you come across Feelings you forgot you had Do you know my thoughts Point toward you in my head You sat across I wish I could hold you best And you’re soaring across the sky tonight with your head Spinning all around my room You look out and say Oh so I'm glad I found you I'm thankful for your space

Hwy 287
Annie Williams
Stars shone on my head With the headlights off over the high point on 287 And the car keys made some sounds World was in black and white Time seemed to stop for a moment of heaven I was dreaming Peace and healing On, on and on, on and on And I heard everything you said Calling me on the phone speaking with New York’s heavy tones And I pulled in late at night Holding my new son tight Dreamt everything was so far and so close I was dreaming Peace and healing On, on and on, on and on
