Dan Fogelberg Anastasia S Eyes lyrics

There`s thorns on the cactus tree
There`s thorns on the rose
There`s thorns in the heart of me
That nobody knows
They tear at the flesh until
The tears start to rise
They form in my heart
But they fall from Anastasia`s eyes.

And I was lost in the wilderness
Without courage or hope
I was setting my signal fires
And watching the smoke
When out of the smoke appeared
The sweetest surprise
And I knew I`d been found
When first I looked in
To Anastasia`s eyes.

There`s thorns on the cactus tree
There`s thorns on the rose
There`s thorns in the heart of me
That nobody knows
But finally I`ve found out where
My salvation lies
It lies in the love that lives
In Anastasia`s eyes.
