The sun rose in a sea of gold on the morn when you sailed to me
And it burned the shackles on the wait to hold
Oh, my Anna Lee
I heard bells, Heaven's bells for thee
There was anguish and love, and I with the flood
Sank down on my knees
Keep this space, my life, for nothing but
Oh, my Anna Lee
I felt wisdom crashing into me
Bring me beauty and color and song
Oh, my Anna Lee
Teach me kindness and courage and faith so strong
Oh, my Anna Lee
I saw angels falling over me
There's a sea behind your eyes and your touch and I'm told
Oh, that you'll fly from me
But I know you're from the beacon for my soul
And you'll stay my Anna Lee
