KEANE LYRICS / SONGTEKSTEN /SONGTEXTE


THE LOVERS ARE LOSING

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


SPIRALLING

Ooo
Ooo

I'm waiting
For my moment to come
I'm waiting
For the movie to begin
I'm waiting
For a revelation
I'm waiting for someone
To count me in

Cos now
I only see my dreams
In everything I touch
Feel their cold hands on
Everything that I love
Cold like some
Magnificant skyline
Out of my reach
But always
In my eyeline now

We're tumbling down
We're spiralling
Tied up to the ground
We're spiralling

I fashioned you
From jewels and stone
I made you
In the image of myself
I gave you
Everything you wanted
So you would never know
Anything else

But everytime
I reach for you
You slip
Through my fingers
Into cold sunlight
Laughing at the things
That I had planned
The map of my world gets
Smaller as I sit here
Pulling at the loose
Threads now

We're tumbling down
We're spiralling
Tied up to the ground
We're spiralling
When we fall in love
We're just falling
In love with ourselves
We're spiralling

Did you wanna be a winner?
Did you wanna be an icon?
Did you wanna be famous?
Did you wanna be the president?
Did you wanna start a war?
Did you wanna have a family?
Did you wanna be in love?
Did you wanna be in love?

I never saw the light
I never saw the light
I waited up all night
But I never saw the light

When we fall in love
We're just falling
In love with ourselves
We're spiralling
We're tumbling down
We're spiralling
Tied up to the ground
We're spiralling

Ooo
Ooo


A BAD DREAM

Why do I have to fly over every town up and down the line?
I'll die in the clouds above and you that I defend I do not love

I wake up it's a bad dream no one on my side
I was fighting but I just feel too tired to be fighting
Guess I'm not the fightig kind

Where will I meet my fate?
Baby I'm a man and I was born to hate
And when will I meet my end?
In a better time you could be my friend

I wake up it's a bad dream no one on my side
I was fighting but I just feel too tired to be fighting
Guess I'm not the fightig kind
Wouldn't mind it if you were by my side
But you're long gone, yes you're long gone now

Where do we go?
I don't even know my strange old face
And I'm thinking about those days
And I'm thinking about those days

I wake up, it's a bad dream, no one on my side
I was fighting but I just feel too tired to be fighting
Guess I'm not the fighting kind
Wouldn't mind it if you were by my side
But you're long gone, yes you're long gone now


NOTHING IN MY WAY

A turning tide
Lovers at a great divide
why d'you laugh
When I know that you hurt inside?

And why'd you say
It's just another day, nothing in my way
I don't wanna go, I don't wanna stay
So there's nothing left to say?
And why'd you lie
When you wanna die, when you hurt inside
Don't know what you lie for anyway
Now there's nothing left to say

A tell tale sign
You don't know where to draw the line

And why'd you say
It's just another day, nothing in my way
I don't wanna go, I don't wanna stay
So there's nothing left to say
And why'd you lie
When you wanna die, when you hurt inside
Don't know what you lie for anyway
Now there's nothing left to say

Well for a lonely soul, you're having such a nice time
For a lonely soul, you're having such a nice time
For a lonely soul, it seems to me that you're having such a nice time
You're having such a nice time

For a lonely soul, you're having such a nice time
For a lonely soul, you're having such a nice time
For a lonely soul, it seems to me that you're having such a nice time
You're having such a nice time


CRYSTAL BALL

Who is the man I see
Where I'm supposed to be?
I lost my heart, I buried it too deep
Under the iron sea

Oh, crystal ball, crystal ball
Save us all, tell me life is beautiful
Mirror, mirror on the wall

Lines ever more unclear
I'm not sure I'm even here
The more I look the more I think that I'm
Starting to disappear

Oh, crystal ball, crystal ball
Save us all, tell me life is beautiful
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Oh, crystal ball, hear my song
I'm fading out, everything I know is wrong
So put me where I belong

I don't where I am
And I don't really care
I look myself in eye
There's noone there
I fall upon the earth
I call upon the air
But all I get is the same old vacant stare

Oh, crystal ball, crystal ball
Save us all, tell me life is beautiful
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Oh, crystal ball, hear my song
I'm fading out, everything I know is wrong
So put me where I belong


IS IT ANY WONDER?

I
I always thought that I knew
I'd always have the right to
Be living in the kingdom of the good and truth

It's on but now I think how I was wrong
And you were laughing along
And now I look a fool to thinking you were wrong

My sight
Is it any wonder I'm tired
Is it any wonder that I feel uptight
Is it any wonder I don't know what's right

Sometimes
It's hard to know where I stand
It's hard to know where I am
Well maybe it's a puzzle I don't understand

But sometimes
I get the feeling that I'm
Stranded in the wrong time
Where love is just a lyric in a tail-goes-round

It sounds by
Is it any wonder that I'm tired
Is it any wonder that I feel uptight
Is it any wonder I don't know what's right
All these days
After all the misery made
Is it any wonder that I feel afraid
Is it any wonder that I feel betrade

Nothing left inside this old cathedral
Just this sad lonely aspires
Adding you make it right

Oh did you try
Is it any wonder I'm tired
Is it any wonder that I feel uptight
Is it any wonder I don't know what's right
All these days
After all the misery made
Is it any wonder that I feel afraid
Is it any wonder that I feel betrade


BEND AND BREAK

When you, when you forget your name
When old faces all look the same
Meet me in the morning when you wake up
Meet me in the morning then you'll wake up
If only I don't bend and break
I'll meet you on the other side
I'll meet you in the light
If only I don't suffocate
I'll meet you in the morning when you wake

Lovesick bitter and hardened heart
Aching waiting for night waiting for life to start
Meet me in the morning when you wake up
Meet me in the morning then you'll wake up

If only I don't bend and break
I'll meet you on the other side
I'll meet you in the light
If only I don't suffocate
I'll meet you in the morning when you wake

If only I don't bend and break
I'll meet you on the other side
I'll meet you in the light
If only I don't suffocate
I'll meet you in the morning when you wake

I'll meet you on the other side
I'll meet you in the light
If only I don't suffocate
I'll meet you in the morning when you wake


THIS IS THE LAST TIME

This is The Last Time
That I will say these words
I remember the first time
The first time of many lies
Sweep it into the corner
Or hide it under the bed
Say these things then go away
But they never do

Something I wasn�t sure of
But I was in the middle of
Something I forget now
But I�ve seen too tittle of

The last time
You fall on me for anything you like
Your one last time
You fall on me for anything you like
And years make everything alright
You fall on me for anything you like
And I, no I don�t mind

This is the last time
That I will show my face
One last tender lie
And then I�m out of this place
Tread it into the carpet
Or hide it under the stairs
Say that some things never die
Well I tried and I tried

Something I wasn�t sure of
But I was in the middle of
Something I forget now
But I�ve seen too tittle of

The last time
You fall on me for anything you like
Your one last time
You fall on me for anything you like
And years make everything alright
You fall on me for anything you like
And I, no I don�t mind

The last time
You fall on me for anything you like
Your one last time
You fall on me for anything you like
And years make everything alright
You fall on me for anything you like
And I, no I don�t mind


BEDSHAPED

Many's the time I ran with you down
The rainy roads of our old town.
Many's the lives we lived in each day,
And buried all together.

Don't laugh at me,
Don't look away

You'll follow me back with
The sun in your eyes,
And on your own,
Bedshaped
And legs of stone.
You'll knock on my door,
And up we'll go,
In white light -
I don't think so.

But what do I know?
What do I know?
I know.

I know you think I'm holding you down,
And I've fallen by the way-side now,
And I don't understand the same things as you,
But I do.

Don't laugh at me,
Don't look away

You'll follow me back with
The sun in your eyes,
And on your own,
Bedshaped
And legs of stone.
You'll knock on my door,
And up we'll go,
In white light -
I don't think so.

But what do I know?
What do I know?
I know.

Oh, and up we'll go,
In white light -
I don't think so.

But what do I know?
What do I know?
I know.


EVERYBODY'S CHANGING

You say you wonder you're own life
But when I think about it,
I don't see how you can.
You're aching, you're breaking
And I can see the pain in you eyes.
'Cos everybodys changing and I don't know why.

So little time.
Try to understand that I,
Try to make a move just to stay in the game
I try to stay awake and remember my name, but
Everybody's changing and I don't feel the same.

You're gone from here, starting to disapear,
Fading into beautiful light
'Cos everybodys changing and I don't feel right.

So little time.
Try to understand that I,
Try to make a move just to stay in the game
I try to stay awake and remember my name, but
Everybody's changing and I don't feel the same.

So little time.
Try to understand that I,
Try to make a move just to stay in the game
I try to stay awake and remember my name, but
Everybody's changing and I don't feel the same.

Oh, everybody's changing and I don't feel the same.


SOMEWHERE ONLY WE KNOW

walked across an empty land
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sat by the river and it made me complete

Oh simple thing where have you gone
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

I came across a fallen tree
I felt the branches of it looking at me
Is this the place we used to love?
Is this the place that I've been dreaming of?

Oh simple thing where have you gone
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

And if you have a minute why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go
Somewhere only we know?

[break]

Oh simple thing where have you gone
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

So if you have a minute why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go
So why don't we go

This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go
Somewhere only we know?
