Lyrics
0:16I dreamed I was drowning
0:21In the river Thames
0:24I dreamed I had nothing at all
0:28Nothing but my own skin
0:33I dreamed I was drifting
0:37On the howling wind
0:41I dreamed I had nothing at all
0:45Nothing but my own skin
0:49Slipped away from your open hands
0:53Into river
1:00Saw your face looking back at me
1:03I saw my past and I saw my future
1:08You take the pieces of the dreams that you have
1:13Cos you don't like the way they seem to be going
1:18You cut them up and spread them out on the floor
1:23You're full of hope as you begin rearranging
1:27Put it all back together
1:29But any way you look at this
1:33Looks like
1:37The lovers are losing
1:43I dreamed I was watching
1:47The young lovers dance
1:51I reached out to touch your hair
1:56But I was watching from a distance
2:00We cling to love like a skidding car
2:04Clings to a corner
2:07I tried to hold onto what we are
2:11The more I squeeze the quicker we all are
2:16You take the pieces of the dreams that you have
2:21Cos you don't like the way they seem to be going
2:26You cut them up and spread them out on the floor
2:32You're full of hope as you begin rearranging
2:35Put it all back together
2:39But any way you look at this
2:43Looks like
2:47The lovers are losing
2:52I dreamed I had nothing at all
2:57（Nothing but my own skin）
3:01I dreamed I had nothing at all
3:05（Nothing but my own skin）
3:09I dreamed I had nothing at all
3:13（Nothing but my own skin）
3:17I dreamed I had nothing at all
3:22（Nothing at all）
3:23You take the pieces of the dreams that you have
3:28Cos you don't like the way they seem to be going
3:34You cut them up and spread them out on the floor
3:39You're full of hope as you begin rearranging
3:44Put it all back together
3:46But anyway you look at slin
3:49Looks like
3:52The lovers are losing
3:56You take the pieces of the dreams that you have
4:01Cos you don't like the way they seem to be going
4:07You cut them up and spread them out on the floor
4:12You're full of hope as you begin rearranging
4:16Put it all back together
4:19But in the final reckoning
4:21Looks like
4:26The lovers are losing
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 all are 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 anyway you look at slin 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
