Anna Begins
My friend assures me it's all or nothing
But I am not really worried, I am not overly concerned
My friend implores me, for one time only
Make an exception, I am not worried

Wrap her up in a package of lies
Send her off to a coconut island
I am not worried, I am not overly concerned

This isn't love
And if you don't want to talk about it
This isn't love
And I'm going to have to live that
But, I'm sure there's something in a shade of gray
Or something in between
And I can always change my name if that's what you mean

My friend assures me it's all or nothing'
But I am not really worried
I am not overly concerned
You try to tell yourself the things you try tell yourself to make
Yourself forget
To make your self forget
I am not worried
This isn't love
She can't stop shaking and I can't stop touching her and
When kindness falls like rain
It washes her away
And Anna begins to change her mind
These seconds when I'm shaking leave me shuddering for days
She says and I'm not ready for this sort of thing
But I'm not gonna break
And I'm not going to worry about it anymore
I'm not gonna bend and I'm not gonna break
I'm not gonna worry about it anymore
It seems like I should say as long as this is love
Maybe I should snap her up in a butterfly net
Pin her down on a photograph album
I am not worried
I've done this sort of thing before

When kindness falls like rain
It washes me away and Anna begins change my mind
And every time she sneezes I believe it's love
And oh lord, I'm not ready for this sort of thing
Talking in her sleep, it's keeping me awake
And Anna begins to toss and turn
And every word is nonsense but I understand it
And Oh lord, I'm not ready for this sort of thing
Her kindness bangs a gong
And Anna begins to fade away
It's chasing me away

Her kindness bangs a gong
And Anna begins to fade away
It's chasing me away
She disappears
And oh lord I'm not ready for this sort of thing
