|
Annie wanders on the land. |
|
She loves the freedom of the air. |
|
She finds a friend in ev'ry place she goes. |
|
There's always a face she knows. |
|
I wish that I was there. |
|
She says, "I'm leaving here tomorrow |
|
To find a new town far away." |
|
She says, "Won't you come too? You need a break. |
|
You love to wake up somewhere new |
|
And find another day." |
|
But I live in the city |
|
And imagine country scenes. |
|
For among the rich, |
|
Within four walls and out of reach, |
|
I live behind the screen. |
|
She smiles as one who loves to smile, |
|
To show that she is free. |
|
But is she thinking now it's time |
|
To wander back again, |
|
To see her friends and me? |
|
We all live in the city |
|
And imagine country scenes, |
|
For among the rich, |
|
Within four walls and out of reach, |
|
We live behind a screen. |
