Sweet Annie

I’ve been burning bright
For so long I can’t remember
Pretty girls and late night bars seem to be my line of work
Believe me when I say, I can’t stay this high forever
This man has had all he can stand, time to lay this body down
Sweet Annie
Can I stay with you a while?
'Cause this road’s been putting miles on my heart
Sweetheart I’ve been living in a fantasy
But one day, lightning will strike
And my bark will lose its bite
But don’t give up on me
Sweet Annie
Sweet Annie
I know I promised you a life
But with an empty bed and the words I said don’t carry any weight
If I could take back yesterday, find a way to start it over
Turn around, put that bottle down and I’d pray it’s not too late
Sweet Annie
Can I stay with you a while?
'Cause this road’s been putting miles on my heart
Sweetheart I’ve been living in a fantasy
But one day, lightning will strike
And my bark will lose its bite
But don’t give up on me
What will be will be
Sweet Annie
