Carrie Elkin - Lift Up The Anchor lyrics

rate me

I got me a man and that crown rules his world

Gives him his power, and his weakness with girls

He finds himself thinking he’s no good with these strings

Cause he plays ‘em so hard, he can’t see what life brings

CHORUS

So lift up the anchor

It’s been raining for days

The back yards a floodin’

I’ll go a floatin’ away

Just lift up the anchor

I’ll be wild in my way

You’ll say who’s that pretty girl

She’s gone a floatin’ away

Been lookin’ for forgiveness

Been lookin’ for release

Been looking for the other side

Of where I wanna be

Been looking for a reason

Been looking for a light

Been looking for a weightless heart

Been trying to treat you right

CHORUS

BRIDGE:

And all I ask of god

Is to show me the time

And all I ask of you

Is to love me right now

And all I ask of you

Is to love me right

CHORUS
