lyrics

1. I watched her tail lights disappear in the night
Like embers fading to ash
I climbed back up the steps to this house she had left
Wondering why so little lasts

Chorus:
The moon’s shining in through my window
But Annie’s not here in its light
Parting as friends is a good way to end
But ending is not what I’d like

2. I have my guitar, I’m in my chair
I reach out and turn off the light
Familiar old tunes in this half-empty room
Help me make it through the night

Chorus

3. I loved our love, seemed easy and endless
For Annie, turns out it was not
Her love was the rose that gently unfolds
And unfolds ‘til each petal has dropped

4. A quiet dark street is the view from this seat
As I finger-pick “Deep River Blues”
Two headlights approach, I give in to hope
But it’s just one more car passing through

Chorus
