Anthony never brought me anything
No diamond wedding ring
Oh, why did I lay by his side?

Nights like this
Without a kiss
I'd watch him paint on his canvas
Oh, but anthony never chose me

With a man writing his mother in long hand
Leaving the paint pots on the night stand
Leaving the rainbow in my hair

Oh, but nights like this
Without a kiss
I'd watch him stare at a blank canvas
Oh, but anthony, he never saw me

In the darkest weather
I pressed both hands together
Asking God, when and where
I will leave this man and I will go there

Oh, but anthony never brought me anything
No diamond wedding ring
Oh why did I lay by his side?

Nights like this
Without a kiss
I'd watch him paint on his canvas
Oh, but anthony, he never loved me
