Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Whispering my name
Be careful before the wind
Blows all of it away
Darlin
Who will you love
When all you want
Don′t you know, baby
You lit two blue flames
Be careful before the wind
Blows all of it away
Oh Anna
You have all of my heart
Inside my mind
Inside of my soul
Undoing me gently
Sending whispers to you
And darlin no one will ever know
Oh Anna
Oh Anna
Darlin
Who will you love
When all you want
Comes crashing down
Don't you know, baby
You lit two blue flames
Be careful before the wind
Blows all of it away
Oh Anna
You have all of my heart
Inside my mind
Inside of my soul
Undoing me gently
Sending whispers to you
And darlin no one will ever know
Anna...
Anna...
The song “Anna” by Logan Taylor takes us on a melancholic journey of unrequited love. It starts with an image of the singer swimming in the ocean, while whispering the name of the woman he loves. However, amidst this romantic setting, he warns her to “be careful before the wind blows all of it away”. It seems that he is fearful that their love is fragile and might not withstand the challenges that come with it.
Throughout the song, he keeps addressing her as “Darlin” and asks her who she will love when everything comes crashing down. It feels as though he is anticipating a break-up, and is trying to prepare himself for it. He is also resentful that no one will know the extent of his love for Anna. It remains hidden, and he is forced to undo himself gently, as he sends whispers to her.
Overall, the song “Anna” is a poignant reminder of the turbulence that comes with love. It is a reminder that sometimes, despite our best efforts, things might fall apart, and we might be forced to continue on our journey alone.
