ANNABELLA

Rupert Holmes





I just want to wake your heart

but you go to sleep

and you break my heart:

Annabella ...

where will you be,

who do you see,

when you dream at night?



Could it be the other guy

who had more than me

and was less than shy?

Annabella ...

You tease me all day

Please, may I say

that we're on tonight



In the morning

things are working out fine

Come the evening

you refuse to be mine

but you stay

and you say



[TRANSCRIBER'S NOTE: the following line is unclear & may be

incorrect]

That I hope to find some love

But each girl I find

will remind me of

Annabella ...



In the morning

you say "Wait til tonight"

Come the evening

you say "Now just ain't right":

No surprise ...

But I'm wise



I won't take another day

or another night

or another way

Annabella ...





REPEAT 6x, WITH FADE STARTING AT 4th REPEAT:

Annabella ...

[Background Female Vocals:

La La La La, La La La La, La La La La Lah]
