Things That Stop You Dreaming
Passenger Song Lyrics

I've got no money in my hands or my coat or my pocket

Wont get to space cos I haven't got a rocket

But I've air in my lungs

Eyes in my sockets

And a heart that beats

Like a tap that leaks

In the night when you haven't got a plumber who can stop it

Jack in a box without a key to lock it

Well this boat may sink but I'm not gonna rock it

Cos the sea doesn't know my name

Yeah the boat may sink but I'm not gonna rock it

Cos the sea doesn't know my name.

Well if you can't get what you love

You learn to love the things you've got

If you can't be what you want

You learn to be the things you're not

If you can't get what you need

You learn to need the things that stop you dreaming

All the things that stop you dreaming.

Well I've got no ones word and no bodies promise

Not a lot to show but this book full of sonnets

And my liver may be fucked but my heart is honest

And my word is true

Like the sky is blue

In the summer time when everybody gets on it

Warm our skins and get sunburnt from it

And our eyes shine bright like a sky full of comets that shoot like silver trains

Yeah our eyes shine bright like a sky full of comets that shoot like silver trains.

Well if you can't get what you love

You learn to love the things you've got

If you can't be what you want

You learn to be the things you're not

If you can't get what you need

You learn to need the things that stop you dreaming

All the things that stop you dreaming.

Well if you can't get what you love

You learn to love the things you've got

If you can't be what you want

You learn to be the things you're not

If you can't get what you need

You learn to need the things that stop you dreaming

All the things that stop you dreaming

All the things that stop you dreaming.
