Anna
Jonathan Eng Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

A perfect snowflake
Our needle in the hay
A four-leaf clover
on a lovely summer's day

That's Anna, sweet Anna
Dreams are coming true
One in a million, that is you

A glistening diamond
Our bright and shining pearl
A shooting star above
a rainbow, that's our girl

It's Anna, sweet Anna
Dreams are coming true
One in a million, that is you

Our search was long
Our search was hard
But we would not give up
Now here you are

(Don't go now)
This could be your home
(Don't go now)
You won't be alone
You have our everlasting love

That's Anna, sweet Anna
Dreams are coming true
One in a million, that is
One in a million that's
One in a million, that is





YOU

I love how the lyrics sound like a love song at first glance, but if you really listen, it's kinda like the "gooble gobble one of us" of device 6.

I got stuck in this level of the game, so got to listen to this gem on repeat for over half an hour straight. Suffice to say it was stuck in my head for over a week after that. Yet somehow I still love it.

Device 6 was great. This song worked so well in the atmosphere of the game.
