Anne Of The Thousand Days Lyrics - All Fall Down - Shawn Colvin

The morning was wet 

I wore your jacket 

I walked your dog 

To go get coffee 

Where I ran into 

Your last girlfriend 

And we said hello 

She didn't like me 

I didn't care 

I reeked and glowed 

I was smug and tan 

You were Henry the VIII 

Off with her head 

She had to go 

[Chorus:] 

Anne of the thousand days 

They go by fast Anne 

Those thousand days 

Anne of the thousand days 

The ink was still wet 

On your love letters 

I should've known 

I wouldn't last long 

And I'm sorry I broke 

Into your email 

But I had to know 

There was the one 

From Colorado 

She thanked you for 

The kissing and dancing 

But you hate to dance 

Off with her head 

She had to go 

Then there was the one 

Who lived in Boston 

And you swore to our friends 

There was no connection 

But her back launched you to 

Your next invention 

Then she had to go 

[Chorus]
