Anne

Anne

How could you take a dark December night
And somehow find a light to cling to
How could you still believe in dreams
After all the pain you'd seen
They couldn't kill the fire in you

Anne
Anne
It's there on every page
Some birds can't be caged

How did you keep the child in you alive
The laughter in your eyes astounds me
You never surrendered to their hate
Or let your spirit break
When the world came crashing down around you

Anne
Anne
It's there on every page
Some birds can't be caged

When your hope runs wild and free
There's no limit to the sky
Anne, if you could only see
How you're lifting me tonight

Anne

They tell us your faith never died
Even when you closed your eyes forever
But Anne, it wasn't all in vain
Your words are like a flame
That burn for every true believer

Anne
Anne
It's there on every page
Some birds can't be caged

Oh Anne
Anne
From a room in Amsterdam
You changed the hearts of man
