Good Fortune Lyrics - Polly Jean Harvey

Threw my bad fortune 

Off the top of 

A tall building 

I'd rather have done it with you 

Your boy's smile 

Five in the morning 

Looked into your eyes 

And I was really in love 

In chinatown 

Hung over 

You showed me 

Just what I could do 

Talkin about 

Time travel 

And the meaning 

And just what it was worth 

And I feel like 

Some bird of paradise 

My bad fortune 

Slipping away 

And I feel the 

Innocence of a child 

Everybody has 

Something good to say 

Things I once thought 

Unbelievable 

In my life 

Have all taken place 

When we walked through 

Little italy 

I saw my reflection 

Come right off your face 

I paint pictures 

To remember 

You're too beautiful 

To put it into words 

Like a gypsy 

You dance in circles 

All around me 

And all over the world 

And I feel like 

Some bird of paradise 

My bad fortune 

Slipping away 

And I feel the 

Innocence of a child 

Everybody has 

Something good to say 

And I feel like 

Some bird of paradise 

My bad fortune 

Slipping away 

And I feel the 

Innocence of a child 

Everybody has 

Something good to say 

So I take my 

Good fortune 

And I fantasize 

Of our leaving 

Like some modern-day 

Gypsy landslide 

Like some modern-day 

Bonnie and clyde 

On the run again ( on the run again ) 

On the run again ( on the run again ) 

On the run again ( on the run again ) 

On the run again ( on the run again )
