Song for Anne

Henrik Wigestrand 1980

It feels a little colder now you're gone,
But the songs you sang still linger on and on,
They sooth my spirit as I go to sleep,
'Cause you're the kind of friend I'd like to keep.

You sing your song so sweetly, you're such a sight to see,
I might get high on Bach or Debussy,
But still I long for your sweet symphony.

Now, music is what makes the world go 'round,
But we don't dig that instant muzak sound:
We wait until the disco takes a break,
Then we're dancing to the music that we make.

You sing your song so sweetly, you're such a sight to see,
I might get high on jazz or 10cc,
But still I long for your sweet harmonies.

I cannot truly say that I love you...
But still it seems an easy thing to do.
Nor can I say for sure that you're the best...
But still it seems you're better than the rest.

You sing your songs so sweetly,
your soul is shining through;
And in the end,
what I intend
to do
is dying from an overdose...
dying from an overdose
of you.
