Anchor by Claire Guerreso Lyrics

[Verse 1]
All you ever do is hold me down
Drag me through your troubled waters
It's been so long since I felt the ground
Learn my lesson and count my blessings

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause we fight to survive
It's harder longer that we wait
These waves, they all lead back to our mistakes
And you've been my anchor
But I'm waiting for this chain to break

[Chorus]
So I can sail away
Sail away
Sail away
I took the right intentions down the wrong direction, now
Gonna sail
Yeah, I learned my lesson
Gonna leave this anchor behind
Gonna sail
[Verse 2]
How many years have to pass?
We hold on tight to each other
None of this was meant to last
We're sinking sand in an hourglass

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause we fight to survive
It's harder longer that we wait
These waves, they all lead back to our mistakes
And you've been my anchor
But I'm waiting for this chain to break

[Chorus]
So I can sail away
Sail away
Sail away
I took the right intentions down the wrong direction, now
Gonna sail
Yeah, I learned my lesson
Gonna leave this anchor behind
Gonna sail

[Bridge]
'Cause we fight to survive
It's harder longer that we wait
These waves, they all lead back to our mistakes
And you've been my anchor
But I'm waiting
[Chorus]
So I can sail away
Sail away
Sail away
I took the right intentions down the wrong direction, now
Gonna sail
Yeah, I learned my lesson
Gonna leave this anchor behind
Gonna sail

[Outro]
It's been a long time coming to end up with nothing, now
Gonna sail
Gonna leave this anchor behind
