Anything But

C'mere to me, I wish I was a mayfly 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 everything 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
