Anna (Go To Him)
Alexander

 

Lyrics:
Anna, you come and ask me girl
To set you free, girl
You say he loves you more than me
So I will set you free
Go with him (Anna) Go with him (Anna)

Anna, girl, before go now
I want you to know, now
That I still love you so,
But if he loves you more,
Go with him

All of my life
I've been searching for a girl
To love me like I love you
oh now
But every girl I ever had
breaks my heart and leaves me sad,
what am I, what am I supposed to do
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,

Anna, just one more thing girl
You give back your ring to me
And I will set you free,
go with him

All of my life
I've been searching for a girl
To love me like I love you
But let me tell you now
But every girl I ever had
breaks my heart and leaves me sad,
what am I, what am I supposed to do
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,

Anna, just one more thing girl
You give back your ring to me
And I will set you free,
go with him (Anna)
go with him (Anna)
You can go with him girl (Anna)
go with him
