Running Up That Hill (BBC Radio 1 Piano Sessions) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It doesn't hurt me
Do you want to feel how it feels?
Do you want to know, know that it doesn't hurt me?
Do you want to see about the deal I'm making?

[Pre-Chorus 1]
You
You and me

[Chorus]
And if I only could
I'd make a deal with God
And I'd 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

[Verse 2]
It doesn't hurt me
But see how deep the bullet lies
Unaware that it's tearing us under
Ooh, there's a thunder in our hearts
Is there so much hate for the ones we love?
Tell me, we both matter, don't we?
[Pre-Chorus 2]
You
You and me
You and me, won't be unhappy

[Chorus]
And if I only could
I'd make a deal with God
And I'd 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

[Bridge]
Oh come on, baby
Oh come on, darling
Let me steal this moment from you now
Oh come on, angel
Come on, come on, darling
Let's exchange the experience

[Chorus]
And if I only could
I'd make a deal with God
And I'd get him to swap our places
I'd be running up that road
Be running up that hill
Be running up that building
If I only could
If I only could
[Outro]
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
