Verse 1
Threw my bad fortune
Off the top of
A tall building
I'd rather have done it with
You-ou-ou-ou- ou-ou-ou-ou
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
Talking about
Time travel
And the meaning
And just what it was worth
[Chorus] - note rising bass progression
And I feel like
Some bird of paradise
My bad fortune's
Slipping a- way
And I feel the
Innocence of a child
Everybody has something good to say
Verse 2
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
[Chorus] x2 - note rising bass progression
And I feel like
Some bird of paradise
My bad fortune's
Slipping a- way
And I feel the
Innocence of a child
Everybody has something good to say
Outro
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
