anytime
Robin Trower & Michael Schenker Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'll catch it 'fore it hits the ground
Cry a little for our fears baby baby
I'm so scared there's something wrong
I hid you in the corner of my empty room
Never really cared 'til now
Not standin' in the corner for me anymore
You've done your time pass
And when my time is through
Can I still come home to you
Anytime anytime you want me
Anytime anytime you're lonely
You just have to call, 'cos you know I'll be there
Anytime anytime you need me
Anytime anytime maybe you're dreamin'
Wakin' up all alone your heart is screamin'
I know I caused you so much pain
I promise that I'll never hurt you again
Even though the scars remain
With a little time I know we can win
Can't stop this fire, lost control over my desire
It burns for you like it always used to do
Anytime anytime you want me
Anytime anytime you're lonely
You just have to call, 'cos you know I'll be there
Anytime anytime you need me
Anytime anytime maybe you're dreamin'
Wakin' up all alone your heart is screamin'
And after the war is over
And all the fighting's through
Can I make my peace with you
I wanna come home to you
Anytime anytime you want me
Anytime anytime you're lonely
You just have to call, 'cos you know I'll be there
Anytime anytime you need me
Anytime anytime maybe you're dreamin'
Wakin' up all alone your heart is screamin'

Blow a kiss from your hand
Send me a kiss as a symbol of your love
I'll catch it 'fore it hits the ground
I'll always be there for you
Cry a little for our fears baby baby
Let out your emotions and fears for our relationship
I'm so scared there's something wrong
I'm worried our relationship is in trouble
I hid you in the corner of my empty room
I kept you hidden away and didn't appreciate you enough
Never really cared 'til now
I didn't realize how much you meant to me until now
Not standin' in the corner for me anymore
You've moved on from me and I have to face the consequences
You've done your time pass
You've moved on from me and left our relationship behind
Your sentence and I'll pass mine
We both have to face the consequences of our actions
And when my time is through
When I've paid for my mistakes
Can I still come home to you
Can we still be together after everything that's happened
Anytime anytime you want me
I'll always be there for you
Anytime anytime you're lonely
I'll be there for you when you're feeling alone
You just have to call, 'cos you know I'll be there

Maybe you're just dreaming about me
Wakin' up all alone your heart is screamin'

I know I caused you so much pain
I'm aware of the pain I've caused you
I promise that I'll never hurt you again
I promise to not repeat my mistakes and hurt you again
Even though the scars remain
Even though the hurt remains with us
With a little time I know we can win
I believe if we work on it, our relationship can be fixed
Can't stop this fire, lost control over my desire
My passion for you is so strong that I can't control it
It burns for you like it always used to do
My love for you is as strong as it's always been
And after the war is over
After we've been through all the hardships
And all the fighting's through
After all the conflicts between us have ended
Can I make my peace with you
Can we reconcile and make peace with each other
I wanna come home to you
I want to be with you and come back to our love
