Anna May was just like a dream
She bought flowers for their beauty
And sold everything
But time doesn't wait
For curtains and lace
When everything's gone
It's the love that you make
Welcome back to Butter Lane
I remember everything
I walked the streets with Anna May
Like trumpet flowers in the rain
From Chelsea back to Butter Lane
She'd take you down and make you cry
Back in her room she'd get you high
She sang like a morning why
There was sunshine marmalade blue skies
And I lay in a dream
Way back there in the age of steam
Welcome back to Butter Lane
I remember everything
I walked the streets with Anna May
Like trumpet flowers in the rain
From Chelsea back to Butter Lane
Once there was the king of the world
Once I held the future in the palm of my hand
♪
So I laid in bed and I had a dream
That we were right back where we had been
Right back where our hearts were from
All is well and ended well
But I can't say goodbye
I can't say goodbye
Hi, new frontier
Time can move slowly or time can move very quickly
Welcome back to Butter Lane
Yeah, I remember everything
Welcome back to Butter Lane
I remember everything
Ooh, yeah
(She loves you, yeah)
(She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah)
I loved you then and I love you now
I loved you then and I love you now, baby
She loves you, yeah
She loves you, yeah
