Anna
It takes its time, Anna
And it never forgets
It's lived too long and it loves you the best
If you need a world, Anna
I have one prepared
Where we needn't be lonely and we needn't be scared
Tonight, my thought's got you
In a Victorian dress
Prettier than the rest
They have built for you
A palace made of gold
And it follows you where you go
It fights its wars, Anna
And it's never known less
It's had its time, now it wants all the rest
If you need a world, Anna
I've let one grow wild
Each year that goes by, it loves you all the while
Your memory's clothed in years
Now, I'm watching it undress
Prettier than the rest
Your coals I often rake
But you only turn to flame
Under the guillotine blade
It fights its wars, Anna
And it's never known less
It's had its time, now it wants all the rest
If you need a world, Anna
I've let one grow wild
Each year that goes by, it loves you all the while
And it never forgets
It's lived too long and it loves you the best
If you need a world, Anna
I have one prepared
Where we needn't be lonely and we needn't be scared
Tonight, my thought's got you
In a Victorian dress
Prettier than the rest
They have built for you
A palace made of gold
And it follows you where you go
It fights its wars, Anna
And it's never known less
It's had its time, now it wants all the rest
If you need a world, Anna
I've let one grow wild
Each year that goes by, it loves you all the while
Your memory's clothed in years
Now, I'm watching it undress
Prettier than the rest
Your coals I often rake
But you only turn to flame
Under the guillotine blade
It fights its wars, Anna
And it's never known less
It's had its time, now it wants all the rest
If you need a world, Anna
I've let one grow wild
Each year that goes by, it loves you all the while
