[Lyric] Anthea (Paola Bennet)

Anthea, I’m on the train to see you
And at each stop, the doors flash yellow twice
Might not make it just in time to greet you
But it’s been so long, you’d only roll your eyes
You wouldn’t mind

Find that bar we liked, and nothing’s missin’
And if it weren’t for birthdays and your bangs
I’d swear for a second, nothing’s different
But you laugh, call me nostalgic, and I am

For coffee on Charles Street
Songs in the dark
And that time I held you while you cried to sleep

You want more to settle for than settling down

Anthea, I hear it when you call me
Your faith, it shakes, it rattles on the phone
You tell me all about the cherry blossoms, not your doubts
But your stubborn pride’s a sidе I’ve always known
You swear you won’t becomе your father
But his love is steady just like yours
Don’t be ashamed

You want more to settle for than settling down
You want more

Seven thousand miles you put behind you
And I have borne this town for seven years
Anthea, I know you’re tired of running
To things that, once you get them, disappear
But I’m still here

You want more to settle for than settling down
You want more to settle for than settling down
(string interlude)
You want more

Anthea, I'm on the train to see you
