Keane - The Lovers Are Losing lyrics

rate me

I dreamed I was drowning in the river Thames

I dreamed I had nothing at all

Nothing but my own skin

I dreamed I was drifting on the howling wind

I dreamed I had nothing at all

Nothing but my own skin

Slipped away from your open hands into the river

Saw your face looking back at me

I saw my past and I saw my future

You take the pieces of the dreams that you have

'Cause you don't like the way they seem to be going

You cut them up and spread them out on the floor

You're full of hope as you begin rearranging

Put it all back together

But anyway you look at things and

The lovers are losing

I dreamed I was watching the young lovers dance

I reached out to touch your hand

But I was watching from a distance

We cling to love like a skidding car clings to a corner

I try to hold on to what we are

The more I squeeze the quicker we all are

You take the pieces of the dreams that you have

'Cause you don't like the way they seem to be going

You cut them up and spread them out on the floor

You're full of hope as you begin rearranging

Put it all back together

But anyways you look at things

Looks like the lovers are losing

I dreamed I had nothing at all (nothing but my own skin)

I dreamed I had nothing at all (nothing but my own skin)

I dreamed I had nothing at all (nothing but my own skin)

I dreamed I had nothing at all

You take the pieces of the dreams that you have

'Cause you don't like the way they seem to be going

You cut them up and spread them out on the floor

You're full of hope as you begin rearranging

Put it all back together

But anyways you look at things

Looks like the lovers are losing

You take the pieces of the dreams that you have

'Cause you don't like the way they seem to be going

You cut them up and spread them out on the floor

You're full of hope as you begin rearranging

Put it all back together

But anyways you look at things

Looks like the lovers are losing
