Only Someone Running Lyrics - Bonnie Prince Billy

Only someone running would run right into me 

Unless that someone was someone free like me 

There are things I will not do 

I will even be mean and cruel 

And I will not stay with you 

unless you give me all of yourself 

When I was a sandy blue 

and friendship dwelled in western true 

Smokin pill and lovely too 

That was before you gave a view 

We'll make a future dream be ours 

Through your eyes I swallow flowers 

and disdain the winter showers 

choosing then to bathe in you 

And I sing evil, I sing good 

I sing as a seagull should 

And if you melted then I would 

melt myself all into you 

Can you love the one that God does? 

Can you love the lily of the field? 

Can you tend the soil inside of her 

till all has been revealed? 

[whistles verse] 

And I sing evil, I sing good 

I sing as a seagull should 

And if you melted then I would 

melt myself all into you 

Can you love the one that God does (can you love the one that God does)? 

Can you love the lily of the field (can you love the lily of the field)? 

Can you tend the soil inside of her (can you tend the soil inside her) 

till all has been revealed?
