Anchorage

Lyrics and music © 2007 Eleanor Fye

 

I came home like you never can

To say hello to my goodbyes again

Still looking for a safe haven

A place to call my home forever - again

 

Did I really live here the first time?

Why did I never fly?

I was waiting, merely waiting to be free

Now I see how easy it can be

How beautiful and easy it can be

 

Anchorage

Hold me so I don’t drift away

Anchorage

As long as I can let me stay

Every yesterday was someday way back then

And tomorrow’s not the same without you

 

Back then I never thought I could

Run up a mountain much less jump off and fly

Just look how far I’ve come

I’m flying and I’ve only just begun – again

 

Some people want to stay still forever

How do they know they’ve changed?

I keep moving, always moving to be free

Now I hope nobody will sink me

You can tie me down but please don’t sink me

 

[Give me] Anchorage

I don’t think I was made for dry land

Anchorage

If you offered I would take your hand

All my yesterdays were somedays way back then

And for all of my tomorrows I need you

 

Still looking for a safe haven

A place to call my home forever – again…
