Passenger - A Song for the Drunk and Broken Hearted

{Verse 1}
Sweet Sunday afternoon, September's golden brown
Summer always fades too soon like the laughter of a clown
Shadows fill the room where sorrows come to drown
Your heart’s a late bloom as you sink another one down

{Pre-Chorus}
I know it knows the way you feel
Blurs what is right and what is real
There's no love left you could steal

{Chorus}
For the joker laughs alone
And the jester's outsmarted
And the gambler tries to win back what he’s lost
And the sad mind sings a song
For the drunk and broken-hearted
And the fool, he never knows how much it cost

{Verse 2}
The sweet Sunday afternoon and all that can be heard
Is an old, familiar tune for you've forgotten half the words
The sunlight floods the room like a silent flock of birds
And hopes a red bloom, disappearing through the clouds

{Pre-Chorus}
I know it knows the way you feel
Blurs what is right and what is real
And there's no one here to make a deal with

{Chorus}
For the joker laughs alone
And the jester's outsmarted
And the gambler tries to win back what he's lost
Oh, and the sad mind, he, sings a song
For the drunk and broken-hearted
And the fool, he never knows how much it cost

{Instrumental Bridge}

{Chorus}
For the joker laughs alone
And the jester's outsmarted
And the gambler tries to win back what he's lost
Oh, and the sad mind, he, sings a song
For the drunk and broken-hearted
Oh, and the fool, he never knows how much it cost
Well, the fool, he never knows how much it cost
