Anke?s Table
Written by Lawrence Lewis / ASCAP

I thought I told her Tuesday
I know I told her she should stay
Broken toe there is no more
And that?s enough for me

But she claims complacence
And never faltered patience
Something sweet but sour still
And that?s enough for she

Pre-Chorus
And then she found this open space
Hers to fill with her good grace

Chorus
It takes on the life that was lost before
It moves and breathes and it shows you more
From her own heart and her heavy hand
And where it stands you know she can
It?s Anke?s table
Anke?s table
Anke?s table
Anke?s table

Here I sit it?s Friday
Something sad in what she?d say
Now she?s got the room to spare
And she knows it?s so

And now nothing will stop her
She?ll always have what?s in her eyes
And she will live with all her heart
?cause she?s not alone alone alone alone

Pre-Chorus
And she fills her open space
With her strength and wunderschon face

Chorus
It takes on the life that was hers before
It moves and breathes and it tells you more
From her heart to your own hand
And the way it stands we know she can

It?s Anke?s table
Anke?s table
Anke?s table
Anke?s table

Bridge (musical)

Chorus
She cleans out the corners and she sorts out a plan
She lives like die Dame ?cause she knows she can
Strong and undaunted like her table and land
And if it falls she will still stand
Anke?s table
Anke?s table
Anke?s table
Anke?s table
