Annie of the Nightingales
[Lyrics]
It was the time, when nothing was right
Time, when nothing was wrong
When ballerinas fly in the wind —
This time is now
And it's written in the dark ways
Written on the white halls
Written in the cracks of the sky
And it says
[Verse 2]
It was awhile since the baby was born
Awhile, since the story was told
Awhile — and then it happens again
And it happens now
And I can see it in the dark ways
And I can see it on the flyovers
I can see it in the whites of your eyes
And it spells out
[Chorus]
Annie Of The Nightingales
Annie Of The Nightingales
Annie Of The Nightingales
And she goes
She goes
She goes
And she goes
She goes
She goes
[Verse 3]
It was awhile since the baby was born
Awhile, since the story was told
Awhile — and then it happens again
And it happens now
And I can see it in the dark ways
And I can see it on the flyovers
I can see it in the whites of your eyes
And it spells out
[Chorus]
Annie Of The Nightingales
Annie Of The Nightingales
Annie Of The Nightingales
And she goes
She goes
She goes
And she goes
She goes
She goes
And she goes
She goes
She goes
And she goes
She goes
She goes
