Al Stewart - Anniversary lyrics

This is the day you disappeared Your hand was steady and I know that your mind was clear You left a note up on the shelf Saying "I would rather be anyone but myself" You took a simple ride across the Great Divide You left the television on in you room Your friends were sad although they said "I told you so" You never really did fit into your skin The small annoying things you do All seemed so cute and entertaining when they were new This kind of honeymoon can't last I think you knew you wore your welcome out much too fast I was surprised to see you played the lottery Your winning ticket you won't need anymore You were in such a rush you never stopped to check You jacket pocket on your way out the door
