Inspired by countless "woe is me" lyrics posted on a songwriting board, leading me to steal someone elses idea and turn it into Yamaha PSR-K1 keyboard backing and piano lead, with rhythm guitar and vocal added. I may add lead guitar track in the future, if anything ever sounds right.
Lyrics
ANNA (You Keep Me Hanging On)
V1A.
I never felt true love inside
I guess I never really tried
Until the day you came into my life
You waltzed into the room that day
Turned your cool green eyes my way
And Anna that was the start of it ain a moment I was gone
V1B
It felt like love for a week or two
And then I say that change in you
And then I watched you walk away beside another man
And like a fool I waited till
A week went by and you'd had your fill
And then I welcomed you when you knocked on my front door
C1
Anna
Pain and misery
You've got such a hold on me
I know I
Should let go
But I just let you keep me hanging on.
(V2A - Instrumental solo 1)
V2B
Laying her beside you now
Hoping that some way, somehow
Things just might be different this time around
Believing every lie you tell
Even though I know damn well
I'll wake up in the morning ... You'll be gone
C2
Anna,
Pain and misery
That's all loving you has meant for me
You know I
Can't let go
So you just keep me hanging on.
(V3A - Instrumental solo 2)
V3B
I feel your fingers on my skin
Sweet illusion sets right in
And I pretend you love me for a little while
Foolish dreams that won't come true
I guess that's part of loving you
I guess that's how you keep me hanging on
C3
Anna,
Pain and misery
How big a fool do you think I'll be?
You know I
Can't let go
And I just let you keep me hanging on.
