Kevin Welch - Anna Lise Please Lyrics

Everybody's saying I've been sinking
Like I've got some kind of damned old curse
They keep talking about my drinking
They don't care nothing about my thirst
There is no greater danger than trying to find yourself
Because there is no stranger stranger than a man is to himself
Anne Lise please tell em I'm alright
Cover me a little while Anne
Nobody sees except by their own lights
All I need from you
Is a little smile
Anne Lise please
The river is icing over
There's a ring around the moon
If it gets any colder
We could cross over cross over that river soon
You could get away with me
Leave all them fools behind
How else are we ever gonna see
All those dreams in the back of our minds
Anna Lise please tell em I'm alright
Cover me a little while Anne
Nobody sees except by their own lights
All I need from you
Is a little smile
Anne Lise please
Anne Lise please tell em I'm alright
Cover me a little while Anne
Nobody sees except by their own lights
All I need from you
Is a little smile
Anne Lise please

Everybody's saying I've been sinking
Like I've got some kind of damned old curse
They keep talking about my drinking
They don't care nothing about my thirst
There is no greater danger than trying to find yourself
Because there is no stranger stranger than a man is to himself
Anne Lise please tell em I'm alright
Cover me a little while Anne
Nobody sees except by their own lights
All I need from you
Is a little smile
Anne Lise please
The river is icing over
There's a ring around the moon
If it gets any colder
We could cross over cross over that river soon
You could get away with me
Leave all them fools behind
How else are we ever gonna see
All those dreams in the back of our minds
Anna Lise please tell em I'm alright
Cover me a little while Anne
Nobody sees except by their own lights
All I need from you
Is a little smile
Anne Lise please
Anne Lise please tell em I'm alright
Cover me a little while Anne
Nobody sees except by their own lights
All I need from you
Is a little smile
Anne Lise please
