Anna

The speaker admits that, by ordinary measures, his life seems comfortable: he has work, a home, coffee in the morning, and someone who gives in to him. Yet these comforts do not satisfy him. He insists that what he truly wants is Anna. The song’s emotional movement is from apparent self-assurance to grief and a painful sense of emptiness.

The repeated question “What more could I want?” sounds less like a sincere question than an attempt to explain a desire that practical comforts cannot answer. “Watch me” makes his tears a direct appeal: he wants Anna to see his pain. The memory of sleeping among her hair suggests closeness and tenderness, while “I was a man” links that intimacy with his former sense of himself.

The lyrics do not explain who Anna is or why she is absent, so her situation remains unclear. The speaker may be mourning a lost relationship, or expressing a longing whose cause is left unstated. His claim that little remains of him conveys emotional collapse, but the repeated demand for Anna also makes his voice sound insistent and dependent. These lines present his feelings strongly without telling us whether his view of the relationship is complete or reliable.
