Alan Williams - Annettas Bookcase Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Maybe we shared a cigarette
But my name she won't remember
I remember Annetta’s face
As she built another bookcase
She would build a hundred more
Without farewells
She walked right out the door
Alone

[Verse 2]
I can't say we were friends
She'd just say I was a man
But I remember the way she tried
So hard to keep her heart inside
More than anyonе, she knew
That in this world the bеautiful
Is cruel

[Bridge]
For one that never had a chance
To rise above the circumstance
Of a lonely carpentress
Come on Annetta, please put on that dress

[Verse 3]
If you’re looking for something
Look behind Annetta's bookcase
Maybe you will find it there
With the love she never shared
I remember the shoes she wore
Kicking sawdust all around
The floor
