"Anthony" lyrics

"Anthony"

Anthony never brought me anything
No diamond wedding ring
Oh why did I lay by his side?

Nights like this
Without a kiss
I'd watch him paint on
His canvas
Oh but Anthony
Never chose me

With a man
Writing his mother in long hand
Leaving the paint pots on the night stand
Leaving the rainbow in my hair

Oh but nights like this
Without a kiss
I'd watch him stare at
A blank canvas
Oh but Anthony
He never saw me

In the darkest weather
I pressed both hands together
Asking God, when and where
I will leave this man
And I will go there

Oh but Anthony never brought me anything
No diamond wedding ring
Oh why did I lay by his side?

Nights like this
Without a kiss
I'd watch him paint on
His canvas
Oh but Anthony
He never loved me
