Steve Wynn And The Dragon Bridge Orchestra - Annie & Me lyrics

Annie and me, as far as we can see, We're not taking any bets, just playing the house Slashing the tires on the restrictive ride that Keeps us in the lanes between the lanes We just never slow down It doesn't even hurt when we hit the ground We don't slow down for anyone Who says it's so hard when when you get old We don't shy away from taking chances, we double our romances Got plenty of time for everyone Sometimes we share, sometimes we're not there Love is the drug for the young Americans (ch) Annie is only fifteen-and-a-half, I'm barely a year older than that Stripping down naked behind the Hollywood Bowl Stuffing our trunk with all the things that we stole (ch) Pt. 2 I woke up and I thought You were here with me But I knew it was It wasn't reality Holding onto every day Is tougher as time Pulls away Trying not to let go of the feeling But something always gets in the way Like dreams that fall through the cracks And friends who will never come back And all of the strangers you see And just how cruel they can be And it's so hard to get by sometimes It's just so hard to get by
