One, two, three
I want love to stretch its fingers wide
And touch on all your wandering parts
Come, sit by my Californian side
With your Carolina heart
If you let me be your anchor
I will hold you down
If you let me be your anchor
I will hold you down
If I see the thin trace of his hands
Let the winter pay all my dues
Let me forgive every single man
That before me came to you (oh, oh, oh, oh)
If you let me be your anchor
I will hold you down
If you let me be your anchor
I will hold you down
So find me when you welcome back your roots
And I will be where all of your ends meet
I want the feeling waking next to you
I want to find my children at your feet (oh, oh, oh, oh)
If you let me be your anchor
I will hold you down
If you let me be your anchor (oh, oh)
I will hold you down
