Menzingers, The - Anna Lyrics






I've memorized every single moment
Every fleeting passage of time
The way you'd laugh and dance in the kitchen
After drinking too much cheap red wine

I always rewind
The home movies in my mind
Back to the times
First moving in with you

I have so much to tell ya
Please come back to Philadelphia
This place ain't the same without you Anna

You got a great big new promotion
But now you travel so damn much
It's like our studio apartment
Is just a place to keep your stuff

And when you're away
I walk around in a haze
Reminiscing the days
First moving in with you

I have so much to tell ya
Please come back to Philadelphia
This place ain't the same without you Anna
And oh, how the neighborhoods changed
And all our friends keep asking for ya
This place ain't the same without you Anna

But I will wait, for you babe
Take as long as you need to take
I'll be fine on my own
Counting down the days until you come home

I have so much to tell ya
Please come back to Philadelphia
This place ain't the same without you Anna
And oh, how the neighborhoods changed
And all our friends keep asking for ya
This place ain't the same without you Anna

But I will wait, for you babe
I have so much to tell ya
I have so much to say
Take as long as you need to take
I have so much to tell ya
I have so much to say
Oh, Anna

  14. P.... G....

    I fucking love this band so damn much! There music and lyrics never fail to strike a chord with me on an emotional level. Music is such a powerful force. Thank you Menzingers! For always giving me a reason to absolutely love music and for always being there.


    "Music is the only thing that makes sense, play it loud enough. It keeps the demons at bay"

  15. G.... ....

    What a strange format to film in.

  16. A.... H....

    When you're actually from Pennsylvania, had a girlfriend named Anna, and the both of you move across the country to go to med school and her into finance, and then slowly things fall apart and she moves back to pennsylvania.
    Coincidence much. Hope the Menzingers do a song titled "Sarah' next ;)

    A.... H....

    Haha you lucky bastard. Best of luck!

  17. I.... 6....

    Funny how my life really revolves around sappy emotional bands like The Menzingers. It was recently when I left a toxic relationship and this girl I liked too broke up too. We were only friends for three years only started to spend extra time hanging out after our breakup. Life became overwhelming when both our lives turn to a certain downfall from depression, daily life and working with our demons so I hope one fine day I'll tell her I truly love her despite everything that happened. A very glad coincidence this song was released around this point of time. I wanna dedicate this song to you E.P. <3

  18. V.... M....

    I've lost track of times that I keep returning to listen to this song.

  19. T.... B....

    Please come back to Philadelphia

  20. T.... B....

    I have so much to tell ya

  21. p.... ....

    Love this song. My friend and I made a slower, acoustic version if you want to check it out...

    https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=i79WGq8kf3Y

  22. L.... ....

    what is this? a music video for ants?


    cant wait for this album to drop 🤘🏼

  23. T.... ....

    The Menzingers make me nostalgic by themselves. Add grainy footage of Philly and it multiplies x9000

    T.... ....

    For real

  24. j.... e....

    Great song from GA. keep it up!

  25. L.... B....

    Glad to hear new good music in 2019.
    I thought music was dead.

  26. J.... C....

    These comments made my freakin day.. I had a really bad break up and this fills the void.
    I love and miss you.. Give the kids everything I couldn't..
    I love you Jenny.

    I was always walking away from you
    You were too busy staying home
    Not because you didn't want to leave but because it felt so wrong

    Chasing someone who rarely loved you
    You don't know but ask yourself why
    There's no reason for you to hold on
    No matter how much it makes you cry.

  27. A.... ....

    love the song but god this video sucked.. just some lonely guy.. if i wanted to see a video of my life in my 20s id call MCR

  28. C.... ....

    If the new album is going to sound like this... Then it can be your best work till now guys. What a great song!

  29. B.... C....

    Being from Philly, it’s always euphoric to hear and see music that references the city. Super cool.

  30. G.... ....

    Christ these guys need more views

  31. R.... W....

    I think I've seen every apartment I've lived in in the past 13 years, 2nd and Christian, 2nd and Moore, 2nd and Pemberton, 12th and Christian 2 x and 5th n Brown. Great song
    Long live The North Star!!

  32. W.... M....

    That’s my fricking cousinnnnn

    W.... M....

    WillM. What’s his name? I’ve been trying to figure out who this is!

    W.... M....

    Michelle Naglis no my cousin is in the band he’s one of the guitarists and co writes the songs

  33. H.... W....

    The Menzingers will forever have a place in my heart. Thank you for making me believe in love again.

  34. S.... B....

    Another top video. Such an underrated band but on the rise! Can't wait for the album. Thanks guys!

  35. J.... D....

    I don't know anna but I miss her

  36. J.... 1....

    Is this Punk? I don't know ... It's brilliant! Fuck genres! 😍

  37. A.... M....

    Vengo por el Podcast de Andreas y el Pepo...

  38. S.... ....

    I'm in love with my best friend Anna... but she got a boyfriend. This is making me sick because everywhere, where was with her is not the same as without her. The funniest thing about this is, that everybody says, even her friends, that she should broke up and take me. I hate this...

    Edit: If you got some tips to get along with this, let me know. Thanks!

    S.... ....

    Tip: Move on. There will ALWAYS be someone else. And the person that you do the best with might not always be the person you expected or even wanted to be with. But when you get it, it's good. Really good.

    S.... ....

    @Alex Cunningham thank you🤞🏻

    S.... ....

    @Alex Cunningham do you know what's funny? I stopped "loving" her in a romantic way. We stay now friends and one week ago i came together with somebody i didn't expected to become a couple with. I just want to thank you for your words. You seem to be a good person. Thanks a lot!

  39. M.... M....

    I! love! the! way! he sings 'and when you're away, I walk around in a haze, reminiscing the daysss' so theatrical reminds me of the smiths or smth

    M.... M....

    Totally agree

  40. F.... ....

    The recent songs these guys have put out are just outstanding. It's so nice to have full albums to listen through where every song is a banger.

  41. P.... ....

    This guy sounds like the vocalist for Anberlin.

  42. C.... H....

    Im in love with Anna

  43. M.... D....

    Great song!.. Can you guys do another funny video though, like the one for “I Don’t Wanna Be An Asshole”? 😂

  44. A.... R....

    💗💛💙

  45. A.... M....

    love it!

  46. P.... L....

    Menzingers are such a good band - we are so lucky to have new music from them! Can't wait.

  47. e.... p....

    Makes me wanna visit philly but dont wanna get shot maybe ill goto chicago.. oop nope uhh tampa... nope..

  48. A.... B....

    I wish I knew people that had my taste in music...

    A.... B....

    I relate with this comment more than any other I've come across.

  49. J.... K....

    Only good band left on epitaph

  50. M.... J....

    They cannot do a single thing wrong!!!

  51. H.... C....

    This one hits hard. I recently got out of a long distance relationship with someone named Anna. "I have so much to say/ I have so much to tell" fuck that really hits hard. God damn. Great song though.

  52. S.... ....

    She broke up with me right before this song was released. Her name is anna. I could not believe it when i heard it the first time

  53. A.... F....

    I was waiting for the 'Zingers to write a bad song... I'm still waiting, I'll be forever waiting. (Never consider a tattoo before, but a Menzingers one seems something with which I can live and carry to my damn grave).

  54. t.... ....

    this doesn't hurt as much as After The Party, but now i want a "number of days since incident" sign to feel proud how i haven't self imploded in close to a half a year.

  55. R.... ....

    Wow nice song!

  56. M.... M....

    This song gives me Gin Blossoms vibes

  57. G.... J....

    Nice to use Phiily as the anchor locale how many concerts I've seen there

  58. D.... t....

    Well played youtube. A girl named Anna left me a few weeks ago. I still miss her, but she already has someone else. Funny how youtube always knows

  59. j.... ....

    This song slaps...

  60. G.... S....

    NEW MENZINGERS HOW DID I MISS THIS. God the nostalgia feels are electric.

  61. D.... V....

    Reminds me of Casey

  62. R.... ....

    saw them at the norva in 2016 with bayside and sorority noise, great show!!!

  63. U.... A....

    😘😘😘😘😘😘

  64. T.... ....

    I miss ya, Philly.

  65. N.... A....

    "Anna" debuted at #20 on the New Alternative 40 Chart this week!

  66. D.... C....

    So fuckin beautiful❤

  67. S.... K....

    Beautiful!!

  68. L.... C....

    Pero qué banda, espero los tengamos en México pronto.

  69. B.... M....

    Vocals sound great. I thought it was the Anberlin singer for a second.

  70. B.... J....

    Shot of Old Philly Bar <3

  71. A.... B....

    The Menzingers have just won music

  73. S.... S....

    This really makes me nostalgic to move back to Philly

  74. A.... ....

    i love the menzingers and this song, but this music video is nauseating. the dizzying vhs camera zoom repetition idk mates

  75. R.... ....

    I have no idea how you guys are gonna top After the Party, my favorite album of this decade. But if this song is any indication, you guys have a chance. Love it. Keep doing what you do. Your music means a lot to me and so many others.

    R.... ....

    You are insane if you don't see that on the impossible past is a superior album

  76. K.... G....

    How many ways will Greg find a way to rhyme words with Philadelphia?

  77. M.... S....

    Love these guys so much, see them live!!!!!

  81. a.... ....

    These guys fill the void that The Gaslight Anthem left when they split. If there's a better album in this genre than After The Party this decade, I haven't heard it.


    I have high expectations for this album.

    a.... ....

    There's two better albums from this decade, they are called "Rented World" and "On The Impossible Past"

    a.... ....

    Was always of the opinion that On The Impossible Past was easily their best album, but yeah After The Party is standing the test of time, it's still fucking brilliant 2 years after

    a.... ....

    @LJ Hepp how long ago was that?

    a.... ....

    Zac Atkinson No they won’t lol Brian Fallon ruined that band lmfao. They would have gotten back together after the 10th anniversary shows if the rest of the band felt like it was still gonna work. There’s a reason his solo music and Get Hurt doesn’t even compare to the rest of TGA.

  82. R.... M....

    This song makes me miss my 20's

    R.... M....

    Ryan M Me too, man

    R.... M....

    What advice y’all got ?

    R.... M....

    Erik just have a good time

  83. Z.... B....

    Why am I crying over a non-existent relationship rn

    Z.... B....

    Bro SAME

    Z.... B....

    This song kills me... I don't think I've listened to it yet without tearing up. So fucking good.

  84. i.... ....

    Not loving what the producers did to the vocals. The echoing is not my thing. Still love this band though.

  85. M.... ....

    Best birthday gift ever

  86. S.... ....

    love!!!!!!!!!!

  87. S.... W....

    Please, please, please record an acoustic version of this wonderful song <3

  88. S.... C....

    He memorizado cada momento Cada paso fugaz del tiempo. La forma en que te reirías y bailarías en la cocina. Después de beber demasiado vino tinto barato Siempre rebobino, las películas caseras en mi mente. De vuelta a los tiempos, primero mudándote contigo. [Coro] Tengo mucho que decirte Por favor vuelve a Filadelfia Este lugar no es el mismo sin ti, Anna. [Verso 2] Tienes una gran gran nueva promoción Pero ahora viajas muchísimo. Es como si nuestro departamento de estudio fuera solo un lugar para guardar tus cosas. Y cuando estás lejos, me paseo en una bruma Recordando los días, primero mudándote contigo [Coro] Tengo mucho que decirte Por favor vuelve a Filadelfia Este lugar no es el mismo sin ti, Anna. Y oh, cómo ha cambiado el barrio. Y todos nuestros amigos te siguen pidiendo. Este lugar no es el mismo sin ti, Anna. [Puente] Pero voy a esperar, para ti nena Tómate el tiempo que necesites Estaré bien por mi cuenta Contando los días hasta que vuelvas a casa. [Coro] Tengo mucho que decirte Por favor vuelve a Filadelfia Este lugar no es el mismo sin ti, Anna. Y oh, cómo ha cambiado el barrio. Y todos nuestros amigos te siguen pidiendo. Este lugar no es el mismo sin ti, Anna. [Outro] Pero voy a esperar, para ti nena Tengo mucho que decirte Tengo mucho que decir Tómate el tiempo que necesites Tengo mucho que decirte Tengo mucho que decir Oh anna...
