Intro : I was up all night and day packing things to go away To leave my lover for a while and cross from sea to sea When it came the time to say goodbye my love she looked me in the eye She pleaded with me not to go and told me of her dream Anna Leigh whats this vision that you see ? Was it just an eerie dream or should I stop and take heed Anna Leigh whats this vision that you see ? Come on just let go of me I gotta leave, Anna Leigh She squeezed my hand and kissed me sweet the families waited on the street I smiled and said I shall return and started down the road It haunted me through all the shows just what she saw how could she know What great misfortune I may come to since you let me go Anna Leigh whats this vision that you see Was it just an eerie dream ohhh what else could it mean Anna Leigh whats that vision that you see I'm so many miles from home, Anna Leigh, Anna Leigh One day we were gliding slow to make it through the ice and snow When something happened that I don't know that everything was changed Then I awoke so suddenly and I was with my Anna Leigh We would lay there crying staring at the vision that was me

À propos de la chanson

Dans cette chanson, le protagoniste se prépare à quitter sa bien-aimée pour un certain temps, se retrouvant déchiré entre son devoir et ses sentiments. Au moment de leur séparation, elle lui confie une vision troublante, le mettant en garde sur ce qui pourrait advenir en son absence. Malgré son désir de partir, il ne peut s’empêcher de réfléchir à ce que cette vision pourrait signifier et à la souffrance que cette distance va engendrer. Le contexte évoqué pourrait être celui d’un voyage ou d’une mission qui nécessite une séparation, un moment où les engagements professionnels ou personnels prennent le pas sur les liens affectifs. Cela souligne la tension entre l'amour et les obligations, et la fragilité de leurs rêves communs.
