Lyric discussion by ringfingers 

I am honestly really surprised at how little understanding there is of this song - obviously she has been fawning over this old female friend of hers for some time, and there are multiple suggestions that they might have hooked up at some previous time; her ex-crush is now "anchored down in Anchorage", whereas she would prefer her to be available, now that, as the letter to her seems to suggest, she realizes her entrapment in Alaska/heterosexuality, etc.

@ringfingers your making that up. There's no hint of it in the song. It's not bad to be anchored, you know, especially when you have kids. She and Leroy seem to be doing fine. She did say, "i'll cross that burning bridge." Probably because it sounded cool and she neede a rhyme for "Anchorage"
