lyrics

Dear Annie,

How you doin', thought I'd write you fore the snow
Leaves me stuck here in this city without a place to go
I'm right here where you left me, wish it could be somewhere else
But I know you're probably busy making something of yourself
Thought I couldn't live without you, turns out that's not so.
It's a life that ain't worth livin, there's a difference don't you know?
I remember how we'd lie there, the secrets that we told
They were times I call the good times
But that was many moons ago
You were many moons ago.

I have to pass our corner at least four times a day
I've moved back in with folks now and mother she says hey.
Though I heard her say she wished you would slowly burn in hell
But its really me she's mad at, it doesn't help that she's unwell
Thought I couldn't live without out you, what's to be, well it must be
It would be easier if I hate you but if I hate anyone its me
I remember how we'd lie there saying we'd lie there till we're old
They were times I call the good times
But that was many moons ago
You were many moons ago

Annie, I hear Katie calling
You should see how much she's grown
since you left on her 5th birthday
But that was many moons ago
Many moons ago...
