What I've Got to Hide

single

Colin Fowlie & Anna K. Eaves

Lyrics

Sitting here at this empty table
My life's a mess and I'm so unstable
Wonder when the sun is gonna shine?
People look then walk right past me
I catch their eye but they don't see me
Maybe ‘cause they haven't got the time?

I just need someone
To take a look inside
Tell me what is wrong
What I've got to hide?
What I’ve got to hide?

Taking a walk down memory lane
I'm thinking of you and you're to blame
Now I'm the one I couldn't seem to find
So I've packed my bags for tomorrow
I'm getting ready for the ride
I'm leaving my past behind

I just need someone
To take a look inside
Tell me what is wrong
What I've got to hide?
What I’ve got to hide?

So pretty baby (baby) if you walk past me
Let me think you didn't see me (see me)
Please don't say you haven't got the time

I just need someone
To take a look inside
Tell me what is wrong
What I've got to hide?
And I just need someone
To take a look inside
Tell me what is wrong
What I've got to hide?
What I’ve got to hide?

Story

The creation of this song is linked to incredible encounters with formidable artists.
From the lyrics, written by Anna's hand before her stroke, to the music later composed by Mia Rose Lynne, this song came to the ears of Canadian Colin Fowlie.
He is a wonderful artist, who we also love.
He offers us here a sublime guitar-voice version...

He offered Anna to join him for this recording which travelled between France and Canada, passing through the USA ;-)
It was a very special experience for Anna, rich in emotions.
It's a real joy to be able to hear her again, for Colin and all of us.

This song is also a first in the collection, it's the first cover that is coming out as a new single, thanks again Colin. Thanks again Mia.

The idea "What I've got to hide for people to see me? "resonates for many people, and many situations...
We also think about the invisible disabilities that Anna also knows today.
