Cover art for Annie Waits lyrics by Ben Folds

Annie is waiting for the perfect man to enter her life and every time someone comes in, he's is less than what she wants. She wants to grow old with someone and she feel that time is slipping her by not knowing that the narrator (singer) who is just a friend is probably the man she's been waiting for all this time. As he's always wanted her.
