Anna
Anna's Journey: Love's Light and Lessons in the Lyrics
Lyrics
The last one was like a distant sun
The previous romantic relationship felt distant, like a fading sun.
He had you wondering how a star can burn out
Reflecting on a past lover who made you question how a once bright star can fade so quickly.
When it's just begun
Expressing surprise at how a relationship can end abruptly despite being in its early stages.
It may seem like you never learn from your mistakes
Suggesting a pattern of not learning from past relationship mistakes.
But when a heart gets drunk on a face and some words
Acknowledging the tendency to be captivated by physical appearance and sweet words.
Then a picture forms, doesn't take too long
Describing how a mental image of a person forms quickly.
Anna you're in love again
Noticing that Anna has fallen in love again.
You saw a lighthouse calling to you
Anna felt drawn to a guiding force or person.
Can you remember when you didn't swear it would never last
Recalling a time when Anna doubted the longevity of a relationship.
You told me from time to time
Anna admitted occasionally questioning the stability of the relationship.
That your lighthouse would sometimes disappear
Acknowledging that Anna's source of guidance sometimes disappears.
Now Anna, you're falling in love too fast
Noting that Anna is falling in love rapidly.
Late for work today, you say you walked the wrong way
Anna was late for work, possibly due to being lost in thought about her romantic situation.
What are you thinking ‘bout, girl, when a voice breaks through
Wondering about Anna's thoughts when interrupted by a voice.
Clears the daydreams away
Suggesting that the voice clears away Anna's daydreams.
A distant light, sometimes a foghorn in the night
Describing distant lights and sounds as reminders of childhood.
Is your reminder you were just a child when you know
Recognizing the need for someone to challenge Anna's beliefs.
That you needed someone to prove you wrong
Reflecting on the fact that Anna needed someone to prove her wrong.
But you didn't know it would take so long
Expressing surprise at how long it took for Anna to realize her need for someone.
Anna you're in love again
Anna is once again experiencing the feeling of being in love.
You saw a lighthouse calling to you
Anna is drawn to a guiding force or person once more.
Can you remember when you didn't swear it would never last
Recalling a time when Anna doubted the longevity of a relationship.
You told me from time to time
Anna admitted occasionally questioning the stability of the relationship.
That your lighthouse would sometimes disappear
Acknowledging that Anna's source of guidance sometimes disappears.
Now Anna, you're falling in love too fast
Noting that Anna is falling in love rapidly.
