Scottish singer, songwriter, political activist and philanthropist, born December 25, 1954 in Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire, Scotland, UK. After achieving moderate success in the late 1970s as part of the new wave band [a=The Tourists], she and band mate [a=David A. Stewart] went on to achieve major international success in the 1980s as [a=Eurythmics]. She embarked on a solo career in 1992. In 2011, Lennox was appointed an Officer of the Order of the British Empire. At the 2015 Ivor Novello Awards, Lennox was made a fellow of the British Academy of Songwriters, Composers and Authors, the first female to receive the honour. In 2020 Annie Lennox and Dave Stewart were inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame and in November 2022 the two (as Eurythmics) were enshrined into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

LYRICS

Every day I write the list Of reasons why I still believe they do exist (a thousand beautiful things) And even though it's hard to see The glass is full and hot half empty (a thousand beautiful things) So... light me up like the sun To cool down with your rain I never want to close my eyes again Never close my eyes Never close my eyes I thank you for the air to breathe The heart to beat The eyes to see again (a thousand beautiful things) And all the things that's been and done The battle's won The good and bad in everyone (this is mine to remember) So ... Here I go again Singin' by your window Pickin' up the pieces of what's left to find The world was meant for you and me To figure out our destiny (a thousand beautiful things) To live To die To breathe To sleep To try to make your life complete (yea yea) So ... Light me up like the sun To cool down with your rain I never want to close my eyes again Never close my eyes never close my eyes ... That is everything I have to say (that's all I have to say) (c) Annie Lennox No reproduction without permission!
