Annie - how long has life been beating you down?
Annie - turned into a girl looking for a way out
Annie - wanted to be loved like anybody else
Annie - keeps slipping away
I wish there were something to say to Annie
Kind words or praise just a little too late for Annie - now those days are gone
Annie - always looked like she was having fun
Annie - Had so many problems that she kept from everyone
What she needed more than anything else is what she never had
Annie - I just don't understand
