Lyrics It Is Not Meant to Be - Tame Impala

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
