Anne Marie by Prefab Sprout

There's a person that i'd like to be, anne marie

I can glimpse him when you're next to me, anne marie

There is music that no-one can hear, anne marie

Yet it's audible when you are near


Anne marie, anne marie, what am i to do ?

You are married to someone else yet

Every waking hour i think of you

Oh listen to me anne marie


Anne marie, anne marie, nothing much is new

I've a history of wanting what i cannot have

This time it is you

Don't listen to me anne marie


Anne marie, there's a person that i'd like to be, anne marie

I can glimpse him when you're next to me, anne marie

There is music that no-one can hear, anne marie

Yet it's audible when you are near


Oh anne marie, this world's an unfamiliar place i see

When you're with me, when you're with me i hear

Strange music in undiscovered keys

When you're with me, when you're with me


Anne marie, anne marie, it's time to walk away

I have never been noble but then maybe being

Noble feels this way, when you're next to me anne marie


Anne marie, and though it's time i can't believe

That i'm saying goodbye

Anne marie - why ?
