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
