You´re just a stones throw from me,
But throwing stones could never be,
The perfect way to start.

Cos sticks and stones make broken bones,
And empty words make broken homes,
But it´s love that broke our hearts.

If I knew what you were thinking,
I would stop this boat from sinking,
But darling you are like the sand,
And you´re slipping through my hands,
I just don´t know what you´re thinking.

You´re just a photo in a draw,
But photographs are not much more,
Than ghosts we can´t forget.

You´re just a red rag to a bull,
You´re just a false hope for a fool,
But its as close as I can get.

If I knew what you were thinking,
I would stop this boat from sinking,
But darling you are like the sun,
Setting when my evening comes,
I just don´t know what you´re thinking.

And I would stop the sky from falling,
If I knew, if I knew,
And I would love you every morning,
If I knew, if I knew.

If I knew what you were thinking,
I would stop this boat from sinking,
But darling you are like the stars,
I know I can´t reach that far,
I just don´t know what you´re thinking.
