Shawn Colvin - Anne Of The Thousand Days lyrics

The morning was wet I wore your jacket I walked your dog To go get coffee Where I ran into Your last girlfriend And we said hello She didn't like me I didn't care I reeked and glowed I was smug and tan You were Henry the VIII Off with her head She had to go [CHORUS] Anne of the thousand days They go by fast Anne Those thousand days Anne of the thousand days The ink was still wet On your love letters I should've known I wouldn't last long And I'm sorry I broke Into your email But I had to know There was the one From Colorado She thanked you for The kissing and dancing But you hate to dance Off with her head She had to go Then there was the one Who lived in Boston And you swore to our friends There was no connection But her back launched you to Your next invention Then she had to go [CHORUS]
