You're just a stones throw for me,
But throwing stones could never be,
The perfect way to start.
Coz sticks and stones make broken bones,
Empty words make broken homes,
But it's love that broke our hearts.
Chorus 1
And 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.
Repeat intro chords
verse 2
You're just a photo in a drawer,
But photographs are not much more,
Than ghosts we can't forget.
You're just a red rag to a bull,
Just a false hope for a fool,
But it's as close as I can get.
And 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.
Bridge
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.
Strum these chords once
And if I knew what you were thinking,
I would stop this boat from sinking,
Back to normal strumming pattern
But darling you are like the stars,
I know I can't reach that far,
I just don't know what your thinking.
