Lyrics

It doesn't hurt me
You wanna feel how it feels?
You wanna know, know that it doesn't hurt me?
You wanna hear about the deal I'm making?
You, you and me
And if I only could
Make a deal with God
Get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
Be running up that building
If I only could, oh
You don't wanna hurt me
But see how deep the bullet lies
Unaware that I'm tearing you asunder
There is a thunder in our hearts, baby
So much hate for the ones we love
Tell me, we both matter, don't we?
You, you and me
You and me won't be unhappy
And if I only could
Make a deal with God
Get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
Be running up that building
If I only could, oh
Come on, baby, come on. Come on, darling
Let me steal this moment from you now
Come on, angel. Come on, come on, darling
Let's exchange the experience
And if I only could
Make a deal with God
Get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
With no problems
And if I only could
Make a deal with God
Get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
With no problems
(If I only could, be running up that hill)
(If I only could, be running up that hill)
(If I only could, be running up that hill)
(If I only could, be running up that hill)
(If I only could, be running up that hill)
(If I only could, be running up that hill)
(If I only could, be running up that hill)
(If I only could, be running up that hill)
