Oh Anne Marie
With your chain
Come to me
Make me sane
Feed the dog
Walk a mile
Speak it simple
Make me smile
Tell me your thoughts
Tell me beautiful things
Like how the river bends
In a wild wood creek
Am I making history?
Am I workin out?
Only what the moon does
To the devout
And I may be floating through memory
We may be the broken wings on a butterfly
But didn't we dream big
Once
Or twice
And that's just fine
Oh Anne Marie
With your chain
Come to me
Make me sane
Feed the dog
Walk a mile
Most things now make me smile
Tell me your thought
Tell me beautiful things
Like how the river bends
In a wild wood creek
And I may be floating through memory
We may be the broken wings on a butterfly
But didn't we dream big
Once
Or twice
Threw a ribbon at the night
Broke the candle
Bathed in light
While all around us
Real life
Flashed at the window
You didn't
You didn't have to tell me
I knew it always
You didn't
You didn't have to tell me
I knew it always
Oh Anne Marie
With your chain
Come to me
Make me sane
Feed the dog
Walk a mile
Most things now make me smile
Am I making history?
Am I working out?
Only what the moon does
To the devout
