"Anchor" - Bess Rogers

from Out Of The Ocean - Bess Rogers by Bess Rogers

lyrics

Gravity feels weaker than it ever used to.
light as a feather, blown by the wind without you,
I float above all that I love and I can't get home,
Till you pull me back, you show me that I am not alone.

[chorus]
I need an anchor to hold me down,
Baby you keep my feet on the ground,
Don't let me float, don't let me float away.

When it turns to night, stars just fade into the darkness.
I'm lost in the tides, sailing without a compass.
Nothing to show which way to go, it all seems wrong.
Till you bring me back, you show me that I'm already home.

[repeat chorus}
I need a moon that'll calm the sea,
Baby you do the right thing for me,
Don't let me float, don't let me float away.

Honey you're the reason ,
That I get up when my knees are bleeding,
That I wake up when I'm lost and dreaming,
Yeah you bring me back.

Honey you're the reason ,
That I get up when my knees are bleeding,
That I wake up when I'm lost and dreaming,
Yeah you bring me back.

[repeat chorus]

[repeat chorus]
I need a moon that'll calm the sea,
Baby you do the right thing for me,
Don't let me float, don't let me float away.
