Love in our hearts, we didnât know the world is complicated
Gleam in our eyes, time would show just what our love was made of
Who knew the way things work in this world weâve made for ourselves?
Where I work myself to death, and you raise the kids
Canât we try to amend our path of struggle for a while?
To pretend our lives are free and carefree still?
And that I just fell in love with you at the Anchor Grill
Money and time⌠we didnât know theyâd be so hard to come by
"Look and youâll find"? We didnât know, thatâs just some fabled school rhyme
Weâll never get ahead in this world
Not âtil we move ahead of this world weâve made for ourselves
Where thereâs no time to kiss, and no room to even breathe
Canât we try to amend our path of struggle for a while?
To pretend our lives are free and carefree still?
And that I just fell in love with you
At the Anchor Grill
Itâs our life, itâs standing right in front of me
Itâs our time, and we know the way we wanna be
Canât you see?
So letâs drop the kids at your folks, letâs go
Where itâs never too late for breakfast
And everythingâs gonna get better
Canât we try to amend our path of struggle for a while?
Canât we try to amend our path of struggle for a while?
To pretend our lives are free and carefree still?
âCause I just fell in love with you
At the Anchor Grill
