Lyrics
Sweet Anna Donia
I should have known you'd be back
With your sickle and shawl
Your dreams dressed in black
How does it feel to feel nothing at all?
Nothing at all?
I watch the koi swimming in the black pond
By the old Smyrna airport
The color's all gone
Waiting for something
Too worn out to care
Over paint stripper, coffee, and the serenity prayer
Sweet Anna Donia
I should have known you'd be back
With your sickle and shawl
Your dreams dressed in black
How does it feel to feel nothing at all?
Nothing at all?
Rose gets her hair done each week at the shop
Her hair stays the same
But the years never stop
Oh, don't worry, Rosie
Don't get too down
Things might be different the next time around
Sweet Anna Donia
I should have known you'd be back
With your sickle and shawl
Your dreams dressed in black
How does it feel to feel nothing at all?
Nothing at all?
I sat on the corner
I looked for a sign
I looked at the faces
Not a one of them rhymed
I lost faith in life
I lost faith in words
I tell you, I'm still not quite sure which one's worse
Sweet Anna Donia
I should have known you'd be back
With your sickle and shawl
Your dreams dressed in black
How does it feel to feel nothing at all?
Nothing at all?
