[Verse 1]
A lone woman stands
In the turning December
She's got ice on her lashes
White on her winter coat
The trees stand like soldiers around her
Dutiful wooden guards
And the heart she feared frozen
Still beats and still marches on
[Chorus 1]
Oh, Annie
I will think of you each time I see the sun
Didn't want a day without you
But somehow I've lived through another one
[Verse 2]
A gentlemen waits on a platform
In a haze of grey and grief
Now he's sold up his assets
Starting over at 70
The steam blasts like trumpets around him
Salutes on the colonnade
As he thinks to himself:
"We're all waiting for our train to come"
A lone woman stands
In the turning December
She's got ice on her lashes
White on her winter coat
The trees stand like soldiers around her
Dutiful wooden guards
And the heart she feared frozen
Still beats and still marches on
[Chorus 1]
Oh, Annie
I will think of you each time I see the sun
Didn't want a day without you
But somehow I've lived through another one
[Verse 2]
A gentlemen waits on a platform
In a haze of grey and grief
Now he's sold up his assets
Starting over at 70
The steam blasts like trumpets around him
Salutes on the colonnade
As he thinks to himself:
"We're all waiting for our train to come"
