Floating up, sinking down
Searching for some solid ground
Keep my head above the water or I'll drown
From the king and the queen
To the peasants in the street
To the faces of the people we can't see We ride in gla** bottom boats
Looking down at where eventually we'll go
We ride in gla** bottom boats
Ride across the ocean
A world we'll never know If it's you, then it's me
There is nothing in between
With no anchor we are drifting out to sea
In the darkest of nights
There will always be a light
Even stars will burn when no one is in sight We ride in gla** bottom boats
Looking down at where eventually we'll go
We ride in gla** bottom boats
Ride across the ocean
A world we'll never know
Where will we go? Even god couldn't see
Even Mephistopheles
Where we'll end up as we span the centuries
Floating up, sinking down
Searching for some solid ground
Keep my head above the water or I'll drown We ride in gla** bottom boats
Looking down at where eventually we'll go
We ride in gla** bottom boats
Ride across the ocean
A world we'll never know
Where will we go? Ooh, aah
Ooh, aah (x5)
