When I´m on a boat
I float, I know I can never drown
I see underwater land
The wind, the wind is the only sound

Take your hand and I go under
I´m under and above
(Take) Take your hand and I go under
I´m under and above

On the river I´m floating in
On the water, I´m diving into the ocean
A thousand black water lilies
In the river I´m floating in
On the water, I´m diving into the ocean
A thousand black water lilies
Black water lillies

Arms are reaching for my arms
I can see no more
We dance as we float around
We head towards the ocean floor

Take your hand and I go under
I´m under and above
Take your hand and I go under
I´m under and above

On the river I´m floating in
On the water, I´m diving into the ocean
A thousand black water lilies
In the river I´m floating in
On the water, I´m diving into the ocean
A thousand black water lilies
(A thousand black water lillies)

I am warm
Floating down
I am reborn, oh
Water lilies
Water lilies

Water lilies
Water lilies
