Anita You're Dreaming Lyrics

Waylon Jennings

Verse 1:
Anita, come closer, stop crying and listen to me
I guess it's too late now but somehow I must make you see
What we tought was our world, was only a dream world
And we just can't go on like this
Anita you're dreaming of a world that can never exist

Chorus:
Anita, it's over there's nothing that's left now to say
Anita, you're dreaming and I know it's better this way

Verse 2:
Anita, come closer and close your pretty blue eyes
Your young dreams just can't be and somehow you must realize
That each time you're with me, my conscience reminds me
If someone whose waiting alone
Anita you're dreaming and when you'll awake I'll be gone

Chorus
