The Lovers Are Losing

[offset:-2000]

What's up

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 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

Cos 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 any way you look at this

Looks like

The lovers are losing

I dreamed I was watching

The young lovers dance

I reached out to touch your hair

But I was watching from a distance

We cling to love like a skidding car

Clings to a corner

I tried to hold onto what we are

The more I squeeze, the quicker we're over

You take the pieces of the dreams that you have

Cos 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 any way you look at this

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(Nothing at all)

You take the pieces of the dreams that you have

Cos 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 any way you look at this

Looks like

The lovers are losing

You take the pieces of the dreams that you have

Cos 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 in the final reckoning

Looks like

The lovers are losing
