I'll get to the point
I'm goin' home
I'll take my leave
As soon as the eve falls
But don't you worry
I'll take nothing you need

You can keep my shoes
You can have my hat
And all my books
That you never read
But I won't give you
The comin' years of my life

Sweet Anna Lee
Didn't you notice by now
We used to be
So much closer than we're now

All of the king's horses
And all of his men
Why do you want them
To go to work again
But I wont stand here
And watch other men fail

I am certain
All's been said
The draw of the curtain
The rush to the coat-racks
No looks over the shoulder
As soon as I close the door behind you

Sweet Anna Lee
Didn't you notice by now
We used to be
So much closer than we're now
