"Anchor" lyrics

"Anchor"

Every time that you tell me you want it
I can read your mind and I'm not even on it
And now I see it, feel it, clearer than the morning
If you're gonna go, then give a warning
I don't wanna be the rock that holds you down

This ship has run aground
Oh oh

And I'll be an anchor for you
Oh oh, oh
But you're always cutting me loose
Oh oh, oh oh

I'll be your night watch
Your lighthouse, your North Star
Your red sky, your harbor
Your ocean, your shipyard
But you want to sail
With the night wind exploring
So how can I love you
If safe waters bore you?

Far away when you're sitting right by me
But I remember when the fire was blinding
And now I see it, feel it, clearer than the morning
If you're gonna go, then give a warning
I don't wanna be the one to hold you down
I'll always be around
Oh oh

And I'll be an anchor for you
Oh oh, oh
But you're always cutting me loose
Oh oh, oh oh

I'll be your night watch
Your lighthouse, your North Star
Your red sky, your harbor
Your ocean, your shipyard
But you want to sail
With the night wind exploring
So how can I love you
If safe waters bore you?

You're out there looking for the answers
I'm here just tryna be your anchor
But I will never try to hold you down
(Hold me down)
You're out there looking for the answers
I'm here just tryna be your anchor
But I will never try to hold you down, do-own
(Hold me down)
Down, down, down

And I'll be an anchor for you
Oh oh, oh
But you're always cutting me loose
Oh oh, oh oh
