Anastasia

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
