Passenger - What Youre Thinking Lyrics

You're just a stone's throw from me
But throwing stones could never be
The perfect way to start
'Cause sticks and stones make broken bones
Empty words make broken homes
But it's love that broke our hearts

And if I knew what you were thinkin'
I would stop this boat from sinkin'
But darling, you are like the sand and you're slippin' through my hands
I just don't know what you're thinkin'

You're just a photo in a drawer
But photographs are not much more
Than ghosts we can't forget
Just a red rag to a bull
You're just a false hope for a fool
But it's as close as I can get

And if I knew what you were thinkin'
Then I would stop this boat from sinkin'
But darling, you are like the sun settin' when my evening comes
I just don't know what you're thinkin'

And I would stop the sky from fallin'
If I knew, if I knew
And I would love you every morning
If I knew, if I knew
Oh, oh

And if I knew what you were thinkin'
I would stop this boat from sinkin'
But darling, you are like the stars, I know I can't reach that far
I just don't know what you're thinkin'
