Lyrics The Impossible Idea - Paul Weller

The Impossible Idea

Corn dolly run — strictly meadows
Sat in the sun — waiting by
Run baby run — thru the meadows
Breathe baby breathe — such a life
While I’m hanging around
Til my eyes fix on the imposible idea
That I’ll change the world
Maybe I’ll come to the conclusion
I can’t even change my own life
And there I fall
Days simplify — strictly head on
Runs to the sun — he knows why
While I’m hanging around
Just to hit on
That impossible idea
That I might change it all
Sadly, under delusions of grandeur
Good is just not good enough dear
And there I fall
Oh what a shame
Such a sad poor parade
Befalls
Oh all up in smoke
What a joke
What’s become of us all
I like hanging around
Til I switch on
The impossible idea
That Love might
Change the world
Maybe I’ll come the conclusion
Until I can change myself
And there I’ll fall
