[Verse 1]
Don’t you wonder where Annie went
After the third time they picked her up?
No one here has seen her since
And I’ve got an apartment full of her stuff
It feels like yesterday since we saw her face
Her dimples popping out of her smile
Does anyone else here miss her laugh?
Didn’t think she’d be gone all this while
[Chorus]
It’s a late night, it’s an еarly-in-the-morning theme
You don’t know if you’rе awake or else you’re asleep
By the time the sun catches you alone in your room
You’re all tangled up in all those bad dreams
[Verse 2]
Last time I saw Annie, she looked so good
Riding downtown on the train
The loudest person in the neighborhood
What I wouldn’t give to hear her holler again
Tell me when you’re ready and I’ll start the car
And help you get into your coat
We can take the long way, it ain’t that far
We’ll be home before you know it
[Chorus]
Well, it’s a late night, it’s an early-in-the-morning theme
You don’t know if you’re awake or else you’re asleep
By the time the sun catches you alone in your room
You’re all tangled up in all those bad dreams
[Outro]
Annie dear, can you hear my voice?
Do you recognize my face?
We’ve been sitting here for so many years
You wouldn’t believe how much I’ve aged
