Anna Leigh - The Sadies

I was up all night and day packing things to go away

To leave my lover for a while and cross from sea to sea

When came the time to say goodbye my love she looked me in the eye

She pleaded with me not to go and told me of her dream

Anna Leigh whats this vision that you see?

Was it just an eerie dream or should I stop and take heed

Anna Leigh whats this vision that you see?

Come on just let go of me I gotta leave, Anna Leigh

She squeezed my hand and kissed me sweet the families waited on the street

I smiled and said I shall return and started down the road

It haunted me through all the shows just what she saw how could she know

What great misfortune I may come to since you let me go

Anna Leigh whats this vision that you see

Was it just an eerie dream ohhh what else could it mean

Anna Leigh whats that vision that you see

I’m so many miles from home, Anna Leigh, Anna Leigh

One day we were gliding slow to make it through the ice and snow

When something happened that I don’t know that everything was changed

Then I awoke so suddenly and I was with my Anna Leigh

We would lay there crying staring at the vision that was me
