lyrics from stephanie (km forum)

----------------------------

I dreamed I was drowning
in the river Thames
I dreamed I had nothing at all
nothing but my own skin

Slipped away from your open hand
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 try
the lovers are losing

I dreamed I was watching
a young lover's dance
I reached out to touch your hand
but I was watching from a distance

we cling to love like a skidding car
clinched to the 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 anyway you look at things and try
the lovers are losing

I dreamed I had nothing at all (nothing at all)
I dreamed I had nothing at all


You take the pieces of the dreams that you had
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 in the final reckoning
we're trying
the lovers are losing

Alright, what does the JP 8 in the background mean? Are they using a Jupiter 8 Synth in this song?

[marianochaplin]

it was in the band's blog..

it's a picture that Jesse took in Paris or Berlin during the recording sessions

[marianochaplin]

thanks for posting

actually, i don't have many skills on the use of windows movie maker...as you've noticed... xD

but i just wanted to share this magnificent song with you guys.

gracias por todos los comentarios!

en realidad no se manejar el windows movie maker, pero bueno, salió lo que salió!

[Ystorica]

Another disappointment after "Spiralling"...

[marianochaplin]

well, in my opinion:

this song, as spiralling, is really different from UTIS and H&F, but it's beautiful to me!

if this is the "new" keane , i'll love the whole album!

[DaveWig2]

This song is a groove. Instant classic for my ears.

[glsxl07]

For me, this is a instant classic!

[loafpork]

This band is dried up , you can tell they're really reaching to pull songs out now. They were catchy with that first record, but this just sounds like another forgettable track. Who Cares?

[azizie8yt]

the best song on the album,perfect symmetry is the second..

[suryalinaten10]

Not a big Keane fan myself, but this is actually a good song. Definitely better than Spiralling, which in my opinion is pretty over rated.

[Trinep]

This song is so good, it keeps playing in my head over and over :) I love keane!

[hip2thabone]

Fucking xcellent!

[BaRNioNLaiN]

Best song in the album, and one of the best Keane songs ever.
