C'mere 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.

Go look another way

Look another way.

Look, I wanna be loud

So loud, I'm talking seismic

I wanna be soft as a single stone in a rain stick

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

But I would do anything just to run away

I don't wanna be anything like this at all

I would do anything if you'd hear me say.

Go look another way

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.

Go look another way

Look another way.
