Mansun Wanted So Much Lyrics

I've lived by mountains
I've looked at trees
I took it for granted
No concern to me
When you stepped on your mother just to get at me
Must get out of this city
Has it dawned on me?

All desire zapped away from me
Mother nature show me a calmer place
All ambition was destroying my soul because

I wanted so much I lost it all
I wanted too much and I lost it all
I wanted so much I lost it all
Because moving a mountain only caused me to fall
I wanted so much I lost it all

Mother nature come to me
I had a vision of the colour green
I moved from the city and I tended the land
Got out of this rat race and realised

All desire zapped away from me
Mother nature show me a calmer place
All ambition was destroying any soul because

I wanted so much I lost it all
I wanted too much and I lost it all
I wanted so much I lost it all
Because moving a mountain only caused me to fall
I wanted so much I lost it all

And I want to live in the country and I want a view out to sea
Mother nature show me a calmer place
I need this city like a whole in the head because

I wanted so much I lost it all
I wanted too much and I lost it all
I wanted so much I lost it all
'Coz moving a mountain only caused me to fall
I wanted so much I lost it all
'Coz moving a mountain only caused me to fall
I wanted so much I lost it all
