Name: For Annie (Only Teasing)
Duration: P00H02M39S
Description: Wrtten around 1982, I have recorded this song in so many forms. Written originally for a lead singer named Annie who was in a band I was in that entered a talent contest at the College of St. Thomas in St. Paul MN. I had a major crush, and she gave me her phone number and I called her a few times, but she was pretty out of my league. Very nice girl though.

lyrics

Now the time has come and gone for us to say goodbye
I know I'll miss you, but I don't know why
You fill my thoughts most all the time.

Yet I know I've never ever fallen this hard
I'd like to change, but the path is barred
Lost in confusion all because of you

My friends tell me that I'm a fool
That I never really should have fallen for you

Friends shouldn't say goodbye they should only go away
I know I'll miss you but there's nothing more to say
I only wish that you would stay
