verse 1
Can you say your name to me and put mine after yours?
Can we build a house of glass without windows or doors?
Will you learn to love yourself the way I know you should?
Can we find the courage there to call our friendship good?
Call it good, call it good

chorus
Anita, my Anita, I was born to follow you
Anita, my Anita, I was born to follow you
Don't let romance obeding hearts
Change what we came to do
Anita, my Anita, I was born to follow you

verse 2
The world is closing in on me, I think it's time I go
And with your sad eyes you taught me, things I didn't know
And my heart broke down about a there and I wish I let it show
I listen as you said to me, you'd rather die then grow
Die then grow, die then grow

chorus
Anita, my Anita, I was born to follow you
Anita, my Anita, I was born to follow you
Don't let romance obeding hearts
Change what we came to do
Anita, my Anita, I was born to follow you

verse 3
So watched as those who ask for love, demanding some respect
Became the last in line that have what they come to expect
As what nobody taught them as they so rightly deserved
And they hums of their misfortune heat, the hardest lesson learned
Lesson learned, lesson learned

chorus
Anita, my Anita, I was born to follow you
Anita, my Anita, I was born to follow you
Don't let romance obeding hearts
Change what we came to do
Anita, my Anita, I was born to follow you

verse 4
To watch us fall, is why they came
And fall we did to the call of the highway
Don't go home, don't look ahead
Don't look behind, everything we were is dead

pre-chorus
Then a well of hope and talents spring and I caught the glimpse of life
And I drank from there as the colors rang out loudly from your eyes

chorus
Anita, my Anita, I was born to follow you
Anita, my Anita, I was born to follow you
Don't let romance obeding hearts
Change what we came to do
Anita, my Anita, I was born to follow you

outro
Die then grow, die then grow
Die then grow, die then grow
