Anastasia's Eyes Lyrics - Fogelberg Dan

There's thorns on the cactus tree 

There's thorns on the rose 

There's thorns in the heart of me 

That nobody knows 

They tear at the flesh until 

The tears start to rise 

They form in my heart 

But they fall from Anastasia's eyes. 

And I was lost in the wilderness 

Without courage or hope 

I was setting my signal fires 

And watching the smoke 

When out of the smoke appeared 

The sweetest surprise 

And I knew I'd been found 

When first I looked in 

To Anastasia's eyes. 

There's thorns on the cactus tree 

There's thorns on the rose 

There's thorns in the heart of me 

That nobody knows 

But finally I've found out where 

My salvation lies 

It lies in the love that lives 

In Anastasia's eyes.
