Anika Moa - Annie Goes to Sleep Lyrics

Whos that smiling over a tale
We need our eyes to loosen our sail
I have dreams that darken your mind
And for a while my heart will never lie
Annie goes to sleep

For all the mornings that sweep in with you
I saviour them and lean on them too
Cos in the morning that's when I'm certain
That I love you

It's a dream to be, becoming sweet
Don't worry your face, I'm singing for you
Never mind the dust won't make you delay
Send it away, I'm singing for you

Keep on talking, give me a moment
Let's make a plan to live on an island
Cos I've been thinking this through and through
It's crazy islands that make up you
Annie goes to sleep with a man on her mind
Rough housing all the sheets that contain her

It's a dream to be, becoming sweet
Don't worry your face, I'm singing for you
Never mind the dust won't make you delay
Send it away, I'm singing for you

I have only confessions
I believe in my heart
And to live on your island
Would be crazy

It's a dream to be, becoming sweet
Don't worry your face, I'm singing for you
Never mind the dust won't make you delay
Send it away, I'm singing for you
