Tommy Makem - Gentle Annie lyrics

Fair and lovely Annie Your gentle ways have won me You bring peace and joy and laughter everywhere Where you go the sunshine follows You're a breath of spring in winter And my heart and soul are always in your care Gentle Annie, gentle Annie And my heart and soul Are always in your care When you touch me with your fingers My cares and worries vanish Like the morning dew before the rising sun When your eyes tell me you love me Then my soul is filled with wonder And my love for you will live when life is done Gentle Annie, gentle Annie And my love for you Will live when life is done You're the flower among the flowers You're the birdsong in the morning You're the laughter of the children at their play You're my hope and joy and wisdom You're my reason just for living You're my treasure You're my very night and day Gentle Annie, gentle Annie You're my treasure You're my very night and day When the mountains all come tumbling And the earth has stopped its turning When the winds don't blow and stars refuse to shine When the moon has left the heavens And the seven seas are empty I will still have gentle Annie on my mind Gentle Annie, gentle Annie I will still have gentle Annie on my mind
