The Slackers - Anastasia lyrics

Anastasia, oh, Anastasia Three mouths to feed, a mother's work is never done Still I can see it in your eyes The pain, the lies you had to hide What you endured, you kept it inside He deceived you He would deceive you Your husband's left and gone How will you carry on Got no parents to turn to To make ends meet was up to you No time for tears when there's work to do You carried on Through the darkness Your dreams denied No one by your side To help you through You carried on And raised a family Still found the strength No one else to thank Except for you You're the savior You were the savior You toiled day and night To make things seem alright You worked your fingers to the bone To make a safe and happy home Behind closed doors you slept alone You carried on Through the darkness Your dreams denied No one by your side To help you through You carried on And raised a family Still found the strength No one else to thank Except for you Oh, Anastasia, Anastasia Forever in my heart You know you'll always be From time to time I think of you What a surprise if you only knew I'd write this song to sing for you Oh, you carried on Through the darkness Your dreams denied No one by your side To help you through You carried on You raised a family You found the strength No one else to thank Except for you You carried on Through the darkness Your dreams denied No one by your side To help you through You carried on Raised a family You found the strength No one else to thank Except for you You carried on You carried on Yet, you carried on Ooh-oh, you carried on
