When I first told you I was a
songwriter you didn't believe me
(laughter)
and once you did, you had one question:
"When will you write me a song?"
- Oh no.
(laughter)
I don't write songs when I'm happy.
- you don't and I don't write songs for fun
So this is a first, and for once it was easy.
(music playing)
(singing) Anna,
Comforting as a dumpling, beautiful
as a walk on the beach in the morning.
(offscreen) Anna,
(offscreen) radiant as a campfire, powerful
as a song sung with friends
round the flame.
Like the hint of a spice on the tip of your tongue,
that you love, though you don’t know the name.
All: Oh Anna, oh Anna, oh Anna, Oh Anna, oh Anna, oh Anna, Oh Anna, oh Anna, oh Anna
B: My love.
Anna, intricate as a curry,
curious as a dance with no lead and no follow.
Anna, spontaneous as a road trip,
a moment unplanned to stop and look out at the sea.
Like a *** puzzle piece that could never be placed,
‘til you fit in the space next to me.
All: Oh Anna, oh Anna, oh Anna, Oh Anna, oh Anna, oh Anna, Oh Anna, oh Anna, oh Anna
B: My love.
Anna,
(laughter)
at the end of our travels,
there's a home that we make and we fill
with our family.
Anna, I will never be easy
but it's easy to stand here and make you this vow.
I will chase all your dreams all your whims all my days
as your friend, and your fan, and your partner.
And my sweet puzzle piece, you'll have travel and spice
and the love that I feel for you now.
All: Oh Anna, oh Anna, oh Anna, Oh Anna, oh Anna, oh Anna, Oh Anna, oh Anna, oh Anna
B: My Love.
All: Oh Anna, oh Anna, oh Anna, Oh Anna, oh Anna, oh Anna, Oh Anna, oh Anna, oh Anna
B: My Love.
