It Is Not Meant To Be

Tame Impala · Innerspeaker [2010]

I wanted her

I wanted her

But she doesn't like the life that I lead

She doesn't like the life that I lead.

Doesn't like sand stuck on her feet. or

sitting around smoking weed,

I must seem more like a friend in need.



And I boast that it is meant to be

but in all honesty,

I don't have a hope in hell,

I'm happy just to watch her move.



And in all honesty, I

don't have a hope in hell, I'm

happy just to watch her move.



And she doesn't like the friends that I make,

Doesn't make friends for friendship's

sake.

She just gets bored sitting by the lake,

her soul won't surface and her

heart won't ache.



And I boast that it is meant to be

But in all honesty, I don't

have a hope in hell, I'm happy

just to watch her move.



And I thought they could

cure his disease, but in all

honesty, he didn't have a

hope in hell, now we'll

never see him move.
