lyrics

Anchor
 
Today I went out walking
While the sky was hanging low
I've got a tape I made of you talking
Gonna press play and let it go
I wonder if you remember
How the world used to disappear
You said I wish we could see each other
For the first time right down here
 
Oh, I forget that I've forgotten how it really was
I only wanted to make my mark on you
Oh, just like everybody does
Ever since you died it's gotten harder and harder to tell the truth
 
But your light
It's still with me
I have an anchor
I have a root 
And in time
I'll be happy
Well-looked after
And I'll try to make it up to you
 
On my way down I was singing
A strange melody was passing through
I can't recall it now that I'm waking
Just another dream I have of you
Sometimes I go out walking
Somedays no one's on your side
When I listen to this tape of you talking
I just wanna live a simple life
 
But sometimes
I just pretend
That we'll see each other again
