Annie's Song by John Denver 19

Is a rock/country song recorded and written by singer-songwriter John Denver. It was his
second number-one song in the United States, occupying that spot for two weeks in July 1974.

It was written as an ode to Denver's then-wife, Annie Denver. He "wrote this song in
about ten-and-a-half minutes one day on a ski lift" to the top of Ajax Mountain in Aspen,
Colorado, the feeling of total immersion in the beauty of the colors and sounds that 
filled all senses inspired him to think about his wife

You fill up my senses
like a night in the forest
like the mountains in springtime,
like a walk in the rain
like a storm in the desert,
like a sleepy blue ocean
you fill up my senses,
come fill me again.
