Annie's Always Waiting (For The Next One To Leave)

One, two

On the outskirts of the wreckage

Out in the sun under the Golden Gate

Annie said she was waiting

For the next one to leave

She had a masters degree

In disappointment

That's what she said to me

Laughed when she said it

Flat on our backs in the grass

Out at Crissy Field

My life's a movie

My whole life's a movie

If movie's made you wanna

Jump off a bridge

She said, "I got one who moves me

And one who sees through me

All I really want is a kiss"

Oh, oh

Annie's always waiting for the next one to leave

Oh, oh

But she's right on time for me

I got the right words

From the wrong mouths

Hurricanes crashing hard

Like I'm the Deep South

Well, it always looked like

Dry land out there to me

Oh no, she said, my mother

She taught me how to doubt myself

Now, she lives in my head

Like it's a treehouse

I see her clearer in the mirror

More and more each day

My life's a movie

My whole life's a movie

If movie's made you wanna

Jump off a bridge

She said "I got one who moves me

And one who sees through me

And all I really want is a kiss"

Oh, oh

Annie's always waiting for the next one to leave

Oh, oh

But she's right on time for me

I was only kidding when I said I like a fight

I was only kinda kidding when I said I like a fight

I was kinda kidding when I said I like a fight

But sometimes you gotta start 'em yourself

Oh, oh

Annie's always waiting for the next one to leave

Oh, oh

But she's right on time for me

Oh, oh

Annie's always waiting for the next one to leave

Oh, oh

But she's right on time
