Anna
The Two of Us Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Anna,
You come and ask me, girl,
To set you free, girl,
You say he loves you more than me,
So I will set you free,
Go with him.
Go with him.
[Chorus]
Anna,
Girl, before you go now,
I want you to know, now,
That I still love you so,
But if he loves you mo',
Go with him.

All of my life,
I've been searchin' for a girl
To love me like I love you.
Oh, now, but every girl I've ever had,
Breaks my heart and leaves me sad.
What am I, what am I supposed to do.

Anna,
Just one more thing, girl.
You give back your ring to me, and I will set you free,
Go with him.

[Chorus]

All of my life,
I've been searchin' for a girl
To love me like I love you.
Oh, now, but every girl I've ever had,




Breaks my heart and leaves me sad.
What am I, what am I supposed to do.

Overall Meaning

The song "Anna" by The Two of Us (Paul McCartney and John Lennon) is a heart-wrenching tune about a man named Paul who is deeply in love with a woman named Anna. However, Anna has decided to leave Paul and asks him to set her free so she can be with another man who loves her more than he does. Paul, despite his intense love for Anna, decides to let her go and tells her to go with the other man. He explains that he has been searching for someone to love him like Anna does, but all his relationships have ended in heartbreak and sadness. He asks Anna to return his ring and tells her that he will set her free.


The lyrics of the song are full of raw emotions and vulnerability. Paul is torn between his love for Anna and his desire to see her happy. He is willing to sacrifice his own happiness for her and acknowledges that he cannot force her to love him back. The chorus of the song is particularly poignant as Paul tells Anna that he still loves her but if the other man loves her more, she should go with him. The ending of the song is bittersweet as Paul realizes that he may never find someone who loves him as deeply as Anna did.

I see the crystal raindrops fall
And the beauty of it all
Is when the sun comes shining through
To make those rainbows in my mind
When I think of you sometime
And I wanna spend some time with you
Just the two of us
We can make it if we try
Just the two of us
(Just the two of us)
Just the two of us
Building castles in the sky
Just the two of us
You and I
We look for love, no time for tears
Wasted water's all that is
And it don't make no flowers grow
Good things might come to those who wait
Not for those who wait too late
We gotta go for all we know
Just the two of us
We can make it if we try
Just the two of us
(Just the two of us)
Just the two of us
Building them castles in the sky
Just the two of us
You and I
I hear the crystal raindrops fall
On the window down the hall
And it becomes the morning dew
And darling when the morning comes
And I see the morning sun
I wanna be the one with you
Just the two of us
We can make it if we try
Just the two of us
(Just the two of us)
Just the two of us
Building big castles way on high
Just the two of us
You and I
Just the two of us
(We can make it, just the two of us)
Let's get it together baby (yeah)
(Just the two of us)
Just the two of us
(We can make it, just the two of us)
(Just the two of us)
(We can make it, just the two of us)
(Just the two of us)
(We can make it, just the two of us)
(Just the two of us)
(We can make it, just the two of us)
(Just the two of us)
(We can make it, just the two of us)
(Just the two of us)
