Breathe, breathe in the air
Don't be afraid to care
Leave, but don't leave me
Look around, choose your own ground
Long you live and high you fly
Smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry
And all you touch and all you see
Is all your life will ever be
Run, rabbit, run
Dig that hole, forget the sun
When, at last, the work is done
Don't sit down, it's time to dig another one
Long you live and high you fly
But only if you ride the tide
Balanced on the biggest wave
You race towards an early grave

What a wonderful voice! This song is even more touching when you think of her early passing. Forever young indeed...
John Denver - Annie's song (From "Country Roads - Live In England" 1986)
"Annie's Song" (also known as "Annie's Song (You Fill Up My Senses)") is a song written and recorded by American singer-songwriter John Denver. It was released as the lead single from his eighth studio album, Back Home Again, and was his second number one song in the United States, holding that position for two weeks in July 1974.
The song also reached number one on the Easy Listen chart. Billboard ranked it as the 25th song of 1974.
Magnificent. There is no other song quite like “If You Could Read My Mind” by Gordon Lightfoot. It’s in a category all by itself. Something anyone who writes song lyrics can aspire to.
