ELEFANT LYRICS - Annie

"Annie"



The smell of the ocean on her skin

The rags of her dress blowing in the wind

A chorus of angels on the boardwalk

They know what you did in the dark



[Chorus]



I never meant to hurt you Annie

Leave you standing with the gun

Come and play with me little Annie

Lose yourself, lose yourself



I lay her back on the cold sand

And wipe the blood from her hand

I fix her hair and kiss her chest

The secrets die in her breathe



[Chorus]



I never meant to hurt you Annie

Leave you standing with the gun

Come and play with me little Annie

Lose yourself, lose yourself



Oh no, her hands are cold

Oh no, I played with her soul

All night again

I'm alone
