lirik lagu anna – old best friend
when i met anna, she could charm
but i, myself impregnable
thought myself immune to it
the words she spoke and things she did
i was unimpressed to say the least
and michael was a friend of mine
with eyes so wide but not too bright
when anna, she came into play
she chewed him up, then walked away
i rolled my my eyes, i’d heard before
to expect these things from those like her
so i called her my friend anna
at arm’s length from my friend, anna
i was only something new to her
i graduated, left the state
and anna, she could just not wait
to travel north to visit me
i barred the door romantically
and i felt so prepared to see her face
and in one night i’d never seen
so many men fall to their knees
and anna, all the cause of it
the words she spoke, the things she did
to put me firm beneath her thumb
but d*mned if i’d be overcome
so i turned away from anna
no goodnight to my friend anna
by the time that i awoke, she had deserted me
the next time that i’d see her face
after a year, her wedding day
the groom a man near twice her age
their child only months away
i saved the date begrudgingly
when anna came to speak to me
i couldn’t take her seriously
she asked if we could keep in touch
she’d said the same to everyone
it seemed like something she would do
what a strange thing when she followed through
so i’d say h*llo to anna
once a day to my friend anna
it was mostly just to pass the time
who’s to say
why anyone’s inclined to tell a story
surely there’s a reason anna would have been the one anointed
center in the grandest scheme
when i can’t discern what she means in it
and that’s how i think of anna
nothing more than my friend, anna
when her husband called, what a surprise
he told me she had taken sick
with slim chance of recovering
the way she talked, it seemed to him
that i could be her only friend
it would mean the world to see your face
i took a cab reluctantly
and told the driver wait for me
approached their door, i feel the weight
before i knock, i hesitate
and i had no desire to force a smile
to know her illness, meet her child
so i left her porch, i turned my back
and hurried back into the cab
i turned away from anna
no goodbye to my friend anna
not a phone call or a note from her again
so i turned away from anna
no goodbye to my friend anna
i sing the story of a girl, completed
