I felt so lucky

Running at you at full speed

You asked me for space that we didn't need

You think I'm cold,

and enraged with jealousy

When you know damn well

I'm not you're enemy

Don't tell me the anchor is rusty

I had all of you

I felt so lucky

Intuition indicates that you still love me

Don't tell me the anchor is rusty

Falling for you

I'm on my knees

You asked me for space that we didn't need

I think I'm lost

We have so much history

I know damn well

It's not the end for you and me

Don't tell me the anchor is rusty

I had all of you

I felt so lucky

Intuition indicates that you still love me

Don't tell me the anchor is rusty
