Anson Seabra’s single, “Robin Hood,” is a unique song which can be compared to the classic novel, Robin Hood, in which Robin Hood, a main character, steals from the rich and gives to the poor.
In the song, Anson sings about how he held a girl – presumably a former lover – in high regard, but she ev...
[Verse 1]
Could have been my happy ever after
Living like we're in a fairy tale
But you and me were more like a disaster
I should have known
Intoxicated by your reputation
I can see the mischief in your eyes
Trusted you despite my reservations
Now I’m alone
[Pre-Chorus]
I was so rich with all this love
You wanted it and I was so dumb
I let you in when I should have run
Now all that's left is something numb
[Chorus]
I gave you all I had to lose
My skin, my soul, my finest jewels
You stole it all for someone new and then
You gave away the best of me
My sins, my sweetest ecstasy
To someone worth much less than me
Yeah, you're my Robin Hood
[Verse 2]
Everybody says that you’re so great, yeah
Walk around like you deserve that gold
But what would happen if they knew the place that
You got it from?
I guess that I was just another victim
Someone that you thought that you could play
I had a feeling and I should have listened
Now there's no us
[Pre-Chorus]
I was so rich with all this love
You wanted it and I was so dumb
I let you in when I should have run
Now all that's left is something numb
[Chorus]
I gave you all I had to lose
My skin, my soul, my finest jewels
You stole it all for someone new and then
You gave away the best of me
My sins, my sweetest ecstasy
To someone worth much less than me
Yeah, you're my Robin Hood
[Bridge]
So alone, so alone
So alone, so alone
[Chorus]
I gave you all I had to lose
My skin, my soul, my finest jewels
You stole it all for someone new and then
You gave away the best of me
My sins, my sweetest ecstasy
To someone worth much less than me
Yeah, you're my Robin Hood
