Come here to me, I wish I was a mayfly on the river Tay
I'd trade all my joys and my pleasures in one perfect day
I wish I was the sunlight for 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
I'd worry the cliffs I'd 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 riptide, I wouldn't take you out
I don't wanna be anything
But I would do everything
If I'm runaway
I don't wanna be anything
Like this at all
But I would do everything
If you hear me say
I'm gonna go the other way
I'm gonna go the other way
Look another way
Look I wanna be loud
So loud I talk and say to me
I wanna be soft as a single stone in a red state
I wanna be the thunder of a hundred thousand
Who's moving quick
If I was a stampede you wouldn't get a kick
I wanna be the shadow and my bright future behind me
I wanna be the last thing anybody ever sees
I hear you touch his 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 be with you

Another way
I don't wanna be anything
Like this at all
I would do anything
If you'd hear me say
Ah
Go a little, go a little, go a little way
Ah
Look another way
Like this at all
I don't wanna be everything
Ah
For me

Like this at all
Ah
For me
Look another way
I don't wanna be, wanna be, wanna be, wanna be
Eddie
You would never have me
Axe
Oh, ah, ah, yeah
You would never have me

Go, go, go the other way
Go, go, go the other way
