[Verse 1]
Empty pockets, swing in your step
Don't know where you got it, but you got the confidence
For flirtin' with the boys in a little cotton dress
That was it, innocent
Handmade tickets, puttin' on a show
That livin' room couch was always front row
Didn't know where you were goin'
But, then again, you kinda did

[Pre-Chorus]
I miss you
I need you
I left you
Didn't mean to

[Chorus]
I wish you would come back a little, come back a little
Run as fast as you can
I wish you would meet me in the middle, meet me in the middle
Take me by the hand
I feel more like a scared little kid
Than I ever did back then
I need you to come back a little, comе back a little
Make me that girl again
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, Anna

[Verse 2]
You taught mе that when they talk about you
Damn, you talk it right back
Now I put on an act with a smile and a laugh
Like I don't care, but I do
What happened to knowin' who I am?
You wore pigtail braids, never worried 'bout the plan
Didn't do it 'cause you had to, you did it 'cause you can
Now I'm just worried 'bout bein' skinny and gettin' spray tans

[Pre-Chorus]
And I miss you
Damn, I need you
I left you
Hope I didn't lose you

[Chorus]
I wish you would come back a little, come back a little
Run as fast as you can
I wish you would meet me in the middle, meet me in the middle
Take me by the hand
I feel more like a scared little kid
Than I ever did back then
I need you to come back a little, come back a little
Make me that girl again
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, Anna
Oh, Anna
Oh, Anna
Oh, Anna

[Bridge]
I didn't even know that you were gone
'Til I was drunk on Broadway and they were playin' our song
I was starin' in the mirror in the dirty bathroom light
And I found you there in my eyes
And it hit me
You'd be dancin'
'Stead of cryin'
Gettin' everybody on their feet 'cause, girl, you got your dream

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, Anna
Oh, Anna

[Chorus]
Ooh, I wish you would come back a little, come back a little
Run as fast as you can
I wish you would meet me in the middle, meet me in the middle
Take me by the hand
I feel more like a scared little kid
Than I ever did back then
I need you to come back a little, come back a little
Make me that girl again
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, Anna
Oh, Anna
Oh, Anna
Oh, Anna
