DON HENLEY - Annabel lyrics

rate me

(don henley/john corey)<br><br>I watch you sleeping<br>My weary heart rises up on wings<br>I hear your laughter<br>Something deep down inside me sings<br><br>Way down here in the land of cotton<br>You were born on a rainy day<br>Since then, sweet things long forgotten<br>They just keep flooding back my way<br><br>Oh child, I cannot tell you how the time just flies<br>But I have had my days of glory under sunny skies<br>These days, your bright dreams are all I want to see<br>Sleep tight, annabel<br>You can always count on me<br><br>In this cold world, folks will judge you<br>Though they don't know you at all<br>And I may not be there to catch you<br>Anytime that you might fall<br><br>But, you got my hard head<br>And your mother's grace<br>All the likeness of the loved ones right there in your face<br>And I know in the end you'll be who you will be<br><br>So sleep tight, annabel<br>You can always count on me
