Lyrics

0:09Come here to me I wish I was a may fly on the River Tay
0:14I'd fit all my joys and my pleasures in one perfect day
0:20I wish I was the sunlight just sitting on The Mississippi
0:25I'd settle for a shopping trolley in The Liffey
0:31In a shot I'd swap my body for a body of water
0:35Worry the cliff side top as a wave crashing over
0:40I'd lower the world in a flood or better yet I'd cause a drought
0:46If I was a rip tide I wouldn't take you out
0:52I don't wanna be anything
0:57But I would do anything just to run away
1:02I don't wanna be anything like this at all
1:07But I would do anything if you'd hear me say
1:12Oh yeah hey
1:19Go look another way
1:23Yeah hey
1:29Look another way
1:32Look I wanna be loud so loud I'm talking seismic
1:37I wanna be soft as a single stone in a rainstick
1:42I wanna be the thunder of a hundred thousand hooves moving quick
1:48If I was a stampede you wouldn't get a kick
1:53I wanna be the shadow when my bright future's behind me
1:57I wanna be the last thing anybody ever sees
2:03I hear he touches your hand and then you fly away together
2:09If I had his job you would live forever
2:19I don't wanna be anything love
2:25But I would do anything just to run away
2:30I don't wanna be anything like this at all
2:35But I would do everything if you hear me say
2:40Oh yeah hey
2:47Go look another way
2:50Yeah hey
2:57Look another way
3:01I don't wanna be anything be anything
3:06But I would do anything
3:07Go look another way
3:11I don't wanna be wanna be wanna be wanna be wanna be
3:16Don't wanna be anything anything
3:22Oh yeah hey
3:28Go look another way
3:30I don't wanna be anything
3:32Yeah hey
3:38Look another way
Come here to me I wish I was a may fly on the River Tay
I'd fit all my joys and my pleasures in one perfect day
I wish I was the sunlight just sitting on The Mississippi
I'd settle for a shopping trolley in The Liffey
In a shot I'd swap my body for a body of water
Worry the cliff side top as a wave crashing over
I'd lower the world in a flood or better yet I'd cause a drought
If I was a rip tide I wouldn't take you out
I don't wanna be anything
But I would do anything just to run away
I don't wanna be anything like this at all
But I would do anything if you'd hear me say
Oh yeah hey
Go look another way
Yeah hey
Look another way
Look I wanna be loud so loud I'm talking seismic
I wanna be soft as a single stone in a rainstick
I wanna be the thunder of a hundred thousand hooves moving quick
If I was a stampede you wouldn't get a kick
I wanna be the shadow when my bright future's behind me
I wanna be the last thing anybody ever sees
I hear he touches your hand and then you fly away together
If I had his job you would live forever
I don't wanna be anything love
But I would do anything just to run away
I don't wanna be anything like this at all
But I would do everything if you hear me say
Oh yeah hey
Go look another way
Yeah hey
Look another way
I don't wanna be anything be anything
But I would do anything
Go look another way
I don't wanna be wanna be wanna be wanna be wanna be
Don't wanna be anything anything
Oh yeah hey
Go look another way
I don't wanna be anything
Yeah hey
Look another way
