Ryan Adams - Dear Anne

I read a book on you You were doing fine One lazy afternoon You wrote in your diary Your sister Margot, she don't talk Peter, he's sad and rude My thoughts they are with you Who turned you in? Who let you down? Who sold you out? The green police or the Dutch N.S.B.? Oh honey why? You was a beautiful child. Yeah, and she was just sixteen, Barely a girl. And she watch the leaves go greenc Through the cracks in an old window sill. What the hell did those people do? Yeah, and how could they sleep, Once they laid their eyes on you? Who turned you in? Who let you down? Who sold you out? The green police or the Dutch N.S.B.? Oh honey why? You was a beautiful child. Well, it broke your daddy's heart But you made him smile And Miep, she kept your book With the cloth and red checkerboard tie I want to thank you for your thoughts Though they weren't mine to read p.s. -- keep an eye on me Who turned you in? Who let you down? Who sold you out? The green police or the Dutch N.S.B.? Oh, honey why? You was a beautiful child. A beautiful child. A beautiful child.
