lyrics

View through bluest eyes
In the spotlight center stage
Surely cannot hold a candle to
The view from Heaven's gates
I regret again
I missed just when
The lights began to fade
Sweet Anna's got the best seat in the house

Tonight she's in the balcony
A box seat shared with God
Where she watches and she listens
For her moments to applaud
Actors train to hide their secrets
But she's free from old facades
Sweet Anna's got the best seat in the house

And I'm not jealous
I'm not angry
But it's not what she deserves
Sweet Anna's got the best seat in the house

From the seat of the designer
Is how it's all meant to be seen
Maybe she still hears the echoes
Of the glorious "Let There Be"
Let there be lights
And sets and costumes
And Shakespeare's poetry
Sweet Anna's got the best seat in the house

And I'm not jealous
I'm not angry
But it's not what she deserves
I've not stayed weeping since they told me
I am steeping in the hurt
Don't call me mad
Or apathetic
I am reaching for the words
Sweet Anna's got the best seat in the house
Sweet Anna's got the best seat in the house

Sweet Anna
Desperate voices throw me blame
Sweet Anna
I'll sing to honor all your pain
Sweet Anna
I lay it down
But I still feel it in your name

I regret again
I missed just when
The lights began to fade
Sweet Anna
