Row that boat, row it with your hands
Don't entrust your oars
with those who'll rejoice when you're gone
Where is that boat, wandering around in the air?
Where is that boat, falling apart but plowing forward?
Fighting the current, the ship holds strong, the ship takes hits
Even when the sailors give in to fear and abandon ship
Row that boat, row it with your hands
Don't entrust your oars
with those who'll rejoice when you're gone
Has that ship forgotten it's a sky ship?
Has that ship forgotten the moment it lifts into the air?
At the end of the horizon of land, of sea
That is where the ship takes off
Even if all the ports kill their lights and fall to silence
Row that boat, row it with your hands
Don't entrust your oars
with those who'll rejoice when you're gone
What trial is this?
What do these scales measure?
What are you aiming for in being with me?
What makes this ship move?
What trial is this?
What do these scales measure?
What are you aiming for in being with me?
What makes this ship move?
Row that boat, row it with your hands
Don't entrust your oars
with those who'll rejoice when you're gone
Row that boat, row it with your hands
Don't entrust your oars
