Bro - Annie's Fire Lyrics

Saw you last Friday, leaning on that rusty old car
Talking 'bout small-town dreams like they weren't so far
You laughed at something, flicked your hair, turned away
I caught a glimpse of what keeps you around, makes you stay

Oh, I know I ain't the reason you're standing here tonight
But I'll stick around, just close enough to see that light
It's a fire that only you carry, clear as day
And I'm here hoping you'll look my way

Heard your name's Annie, comes with stories in your eyes
They say you got dreams bigger than the Carolina skies
You talk tough, say you're just passing through
But every time I see you, you're wrapped in hometown blues

Oh, I know I ain't the reason you're standing here tonight
But I'll stick around, just close enough to see that light
It's a fire that only you carry, clear as day
And I'm here hoping you'll look my way

Last night, we were shoulder to shoulder by the jukebox glow
You smiled like you knew secrets I'd never know
You leaned in close, let a whisper hang in the air
For a heartbeat, Annie, it felt like you cared

Oh, I know I ain't the reason you're standing here tonight
But I'll stick around, just close enough to see that light
It's a fire that only you carry, clear as day
And I'm here hoping you'll look my way

You brushed my hand, and I swear time stood still
Just a spark, but enough to feel that thrill
It lingered there, like an unfinished song
A note suspended, where we both belong

Oh, I know I wasn't the reason you stood here tonight
But now I'm close enough to see that light
A quiet fire, clear as day
Come on, Annie, let's find our way!
