lyrics

Anika


When I was caught in a storm on a bridge
And the river beneath me ran wild
All of the words that I never did say to you
Suddenly breaching my mind


The truth speaks in whispers
More than it screams
But right now it’s so hard to be blind
These old emotions burst at the seams
And they carry me back into time

When you were mine
We reached the divine
Sweet Anika kind


And now I know that the roads that we chose
Went to different shores of the sea
Dauntless and careless we sauntered along
Disregarding the things that might be


I was a young man, cocky and proud
When you showed me what real love could be
We were two nomads, not stuck on the ground
Just the pounding desire to be free


When you were mine
We reached the divine
Sweet Anika kind


Isn’t it possible
All of our fears could just wash away with the new rain
Older and wiser
Now we can still turn that old spark of our love
Into flame


If you were still mine
We’d reach the divine
Sweet Ankia kind
