"Anchor Grill" lyrics

"Anchor Grill"

Love in our hearts
We didn't 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 we've made for ourselves?
Where I work myself to death
And you raise the kids

Can't 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 didn't know they'd be so hard to come by
Look and you'll find
We didn't know that's just some fabled school rhyme

We'll never get ahead in this world
Not 'til we move ahead of this world
We've made for ourselves
Where there's no time to kiss
No room to even breathe

Can't 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

It's our life
It's standing right in front of me
It's our time
And we know the way we wanna be
Can't you see?

So let's drop the kids at your folks
Let's go
Where it's never too late for breakfast
And everything's gonna get better

Can't we try to amend our path of struggle for a while?
To pretend our lives are free and carefree still
Cause I just fell in love with you
At the Anchor Grill

Yeah, at the Anchor Grill
I love you still
