The sun's on the ceiling It's my sign for leaving She's lying there sleeping As I slip away, like a Thief in the night In God's-honest daylight My life is like a re-run That I can't change Anchors away Works like a charm The first sign of danger I pull the alarm Something's broken in me I don't wanna leave I don't know how to stay Anchors away Anchors away Well this house is haunted The last thing I wanted Was your memory gone I wish it would go 'Cause she just reminds me Of all that I should be But I'm just a ghost Of the man you know Anchors away Works like a charm The first sign of danger I pull the alarm Something's broken in me I don't wanna leave I don't know how to stay Anchors away Anchors away Don't worry, Darling If there's a storm You can count on me runnin' Trust me, I'll be long gone Anchors away It works like a charm The first sign of danger I pull the alarm Something's broken in me I don't wanna leave I don't know, how to stay Anchors away Anchors away Anchors away Anchors away
