Lyrics

Pollyanna

Look who came by again

For friendly old times

To see me

How long can you stay

Did you bring your disease

That makes me breathe

What you don't know

Is I keep your picture around me

Your vision surrounds me

It lets you know the power you have over me

Over me

I'll find God for Pollyanna

Send light to Pollyanna

Find God for Pollyanna in me

I'll find God for Pollyanna

New life for Pollyanna

So Pollyanna don't feel my misery

She don't feel my misery

Here I am again

Left for dead again

Oh how sweet

Come back any day

Anytime is okay to see me

What's left of me

What you don't know

Is I keep your vision around me

Your addiction surrounds me

It lets you know the power you have over me

Over me

I'll find God for Pollyanna

Send light to Pollyanna

Find God for Pollyanna in me

I'll find God for Pollyanna

A new life for Pollyanna

So Pollyanna don't feel my misery

She don't feel my misery

It goes to show the power you have over me

Over me

I'll find God for Pollyanna

Send Light to Pollyanna

Find God for Pollyanna to me

I'll find God for Pollyanna

A new life for Pollyanna

So Pollyanna don't feel my misery

She don't feel my misery

If you got your Pollyanna

Come and weep with me

Offer Pollyanna some sympathy
