Annie I Owe You A Dance歌词

I was running late again, picking up a few things
And there you were on isle 13.
I felt that old rush, when you saw me you blushed
Like you did when you were sweet sixteen.
They said you looked lost on the dancefloor,
With a lonely look in your eyes.
Dont know why I didnt show, to this day I still dont know
For once I wish I hadnt thought twice.
Then your folks split up and you moved to Colorado,
And I headed out to Tennessee.
Heard you got married and you moved back home,
Here we are again, you and me.
Its no surprise the light in your little girls eyes,
Shines like the ring on your hand.
Annie, I owe you a dance.
Dont the years fly by in the blink of an eye,
Yeah loves, Ive had a few.
Ive been a million places and Ive seen a million faces,
But I couldnt stop thinking bout you.
Remember how wed talk for hours, keeping each others secrets,
Made a promise Id take you to homecoming,
But Annie I didnt keep it.
Almost called you up, when I played it bolder,
But I thought Id just let it be.
Heard you found yourself a real good man,
Do you ever think of you and me?
Its no surprise the light in your little girls eyes,
Shines like the ring on your hand.
Annie, I owe you a dance.

So put your groceries in the basket, Im so sorry, now Im asking
Like I should have twenty years ago.
And I know its all over, Im just looking for some closure,
And theres a song on the radio.
You give me your hand and we start to dance,
The cashier gives us a smile.
As you turn and walk away, I hear your little girl say
Momma, who was that guy?
I shouldnt be surprised, look forgiveness in your eyes,
Gave me a second chance.
Annie, thanks for the dance.
