Paroles de Titanic
That night it all started when the ship began to shakeWe were filled with amazement, a little shocked but not afraid
We didn't really understand what caused the water to come in
We had been told this mighty ocean-liner "even god himself couldn't sink"
You took a picture of our child, your hat and your jewelry
And we put on some warm clothes because we thought it might be cold at sea
When we left our cabin we noticed how the water started pouring in
Was it a tear or maybe just a drop of water on your chin
Titanic, Titanic, so proud and so free
Will your grandeur protect us from the cold icy sea
We followed some white arrows with a lifeboat-sign
We had to go onto the first-class deck but no one seemed to mind
Despite the strange situation we all took it quite with ease
Only one of the third-class passengers was behaving foolishly
We talked to a gentleman that we'd met earlier on
He introduced us to his wife, he introduced us to his son
Then the captain said that the lifeboats could not be lowered down
I believe it was because some chains of the hoist could not be found
Titanic, Titanic, so proud and so free
Will your grandeur protect us from the cold icy sea
We were all invited for a free drink at the bar
We drank to the empire and to good health for us all
The ship was leaning to one side, we felt it sinking quietly
We decided to stay together on board, though many people jumped into the sea
Then the rats left the ship to try and find dry land
But we stayed close together and held each others hand We're watching the last lifeboat as it slowly lowers down
There's many men, women and children left behind, not a helping hand around
Not a helping hand around, not a helping hand around
There's many men, women and children left behind, not a helping hand around
Now the members of the band struck up with "nearer my god to thee"
Somehow banal but in the vain of our time and century
By now we have lost our last tiny bit of hope
We're all going down while the flag is going up
Was it a tear or maybe just a drop of water on your chin
Titanic, Titanic, so proud and so free
Will your grandeur protect us from the cold icy sea
We followed some white arrows with a lifeboat-sign
We had to go onto the first-class deck but no one seemed to mind
Despite the strange situation we all took it quite with ease
Only one of the third-class passengers was behaving foolishly
We talked to a gentleman that we'd met earlier on
He introduced us to his wife, he introduced us to his son
Then the captain said that the lifeboats could not be lowered down
I believe it was because some chains of the hoist could not be found
Titanic, Titanic, so proud and so free
Will your grandeur protect us from the cold icy sea
We were all invited for a free drink at the bar
We drank to the empire and to good health for us all
The ship was leaning to one side, we felt it sinking quietly
We decided to stay together on board, though many people jumped into the sea
Then the rats left the ship to try and find dry land
But we stayed close together and held each others hand We're watching the last lifeboat as it slowly lowers down
There's many men, women and children left behind, not a helping hand around
Not a helping hand around, not a helping hand around
There's many men, women and children left behind, not a helping hand around
Now the members of the band struck up with "nearer my god to thee"
Somehow banal but in the vain of our time and century
By now we have lost our last tiny bit of hope
We're all going down while the flag is going up
