Love in our hearts, we didn't know the world is complicatedGleam in our eyes, time would show just what our love was made ofWho knew the way things work in this world we've made for ourselves?
Where I work myself to death, and you raise the kidsCan't we try to amend our path of struggle for a while?
To pretend our lives are free and carefree still?And that I just fell in love with you at the Anchor GrillMoney and time we didn't know they'd be so hard to come by"Look and you'll find"? We didn't know, that's just some fabled school rhymeWe'll never get ahead in this world
Not 'til we move ahead of this world we've made for ourselvesWhere there's no time to kiss, and no room to even breatheTo pretend our lives are free and carefree still?Can't we try to amend our path of struggle for a while?And that I just fell in love with youAt the Anchor GrillIt's our life, it's standing right in front of meIt's our time, and we know the way we wanna beCan't you see?So let's drop the kids at your folks, let's goWhere it's never too late for breakfast
And everything's gonna get betterCan't we try to amend our path of struggle for a while?Can't we try to amend our path of struggle for a while?
To pretend our lives are free and carefree still?'Cause I just fell in love with youAt the Anchor Grill
