Anna

Go out on the sidewalk

Two blocks to your right there's a circle

Where the broken people go

And there on broken benches

They sit all alone with their neighbors

Who they've met but don't know

And they sit and they articulate in their own ears

Past the point of wishing they could have someone like you 

have me



Anna

But still the hollow midnight footsteps

Pacing nowhere round the room

And your darkened eyes say everything's gone wrong

I've been here but you won't see me

Holding out a loving hand

Oh, Anna

You'd think you're alone



Anna

While you're at the window

Be sure not to stop the warm sunlight

From burning through your skin

If I can never help you

I'll be on my way

I'm not worth it

And you won't see me again



Not unless you write and need a friend

I'll come again, again

Not unless there comes a time

When I can make a change in you

By touching you

Anna



And stop the hollow midnight footsteps

Pacing nowhere round the room

Calm the darkened eyes where everything's been wrong

And kiss the livid lips

So pale from never speaking

Oh, Anna

You're not alone



Anna

Go out on the sidewalk

Two blocks to your right there's a circle

Endless
