so there's this girl on a hill
with a kite strapped to her back
she's crying �come on hurry blow
hurry pick me up and throw me skywards�
she�s got a prayer in her mouth
and she�s done all of the math
she�s got a feather for a heart but
it still doesn�t
guarantee
her
cos not everything you run to wants you
(it�s just not just, it�s not just, it�s just wrong)
and not everything you love will love you...
(it�s just not just, it�s not just, it�s just wrong)
so there�s this boy on a hill with a hammer
in his hand he�s shouting �fire in the sky
come on turn me into something special�
and then a storm whips up and the heavens are
alive and he�s wearing copper shoes but it
still doesn�t guarantee him...
cos not everything you run to wants you
(it�s just not just, it�s not just, it�s just wrong)
and not everything you love will love you
(it�s just not just, it�s not just, it�s just wrong)
it�s the tragedy of dreamers
like me and you...
