  • I'm caught in a moment out in the rain
    Tell me there's something we can say
    Help me to find a light
    Something that's worth living
    Shes walking the back beat out in the grave
    Tell me there's something we can change
    Help me to find my way back down

    'Cause Annie's got to get out
    Before she never can
    Were chasing for the ceiling
    I'm grabbing for her hand
    Were calling on a thin phone line, tonight
    Cause Annie's got to get out

    Holding the line from the back of the car
    Miles and miles from where you are
    Maye the hardest things are the dreams that we've been given
    And you scream and you sing and you shout
    There one way in and there's one way out
    Help me to find my way back down

    'Cause Annie's got to get out
    Before she never can
    Were chasing for the ceiling
    I'm grabbing for her hand
    Were calling on a thin phone line, tonight
    'Cause Annie's got to get out

    There's one love in the morning
    Add three days in the grave
    Fall back in the evening
    Now our lives will change

    I'm caught in a moment out in the rain
    Tell me there's something we can say
    Help me to find my way back down

    'Cause Annie's got to get out
    Before she never can
    Were chasing for the ceiling
    I'm grabbing for her hand
    Were calling on a thin phone line, tonight
    'Cause Annie's got to get out
    Oh Annie's got to get out
