The Lovers Are Losing

I dreamed I was drowningIn the river ThamesI dreamed I had nothing at allNothing but my own skinI dreamed I was driftingOn the howling windI dreamed I had nothing at allNothing but my own skinSlipped away from your open handsInto the riverSaw your face looking back at meI saw my past and I saw my futureYou take the pieces of the dreams that you haveCause you don't like the way they seem to be goingYou cut them up and spread them out on the floorYou're full of hope as you begin rearrangingPut it all back togetherBut anyway you look at thingsLooks likeThe lovers are losingI dreamed I was watchingThe young lover's danceI reached out to touch your handBut I was watching from a distanceWe cling to love like a skidding carClinched to the cornerI try to hold on to what we areThe more I squeeze the quicker we all areYou take the pieces of the dreams that you haveCause you don't like the way they seem to be goingYou cut them up and spread them out on the floorYou're full of hope as you begin rearrangingPut it all back togetherBut anyway you look at thingsLooks likeThe lovers are losingI 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 hadCause you don't like the way they seem to be goingYou cut them up and spread them out on the floorYou're full of hope as you begin rearrangingPut it all back togetherBut in the final reckoningWe're tryingThe lovers are losing
