|
The band played and the cameras turned |
|
As the bottle smashed on her bow |
|
The flagship of the gilded age |
|
Moved slowly out to sea |
|
Never had such luxury |
|
Been seen afloat before |
|
They said she was unsinkable |
|
The fools were wrong once more |
|
S.O.S. (*) |
|
We're sinking fast, you better get to the boats |
|
S.O.S. |
|
The captain cried for God sakes save your souls |
|
Sailing on into the night |
|
Toward the northern star |
|
Laughter rang, people danced |
|
Under crystal chandeliers |
|
No-one sensed the danger |
|
In the unforgiving sea |
|
Steaming into legend |
|
A voyage into history |
|
(Repeat *) |
|
2,000 tortured souls cry out |
|
Cry out from their sleep |
|
Damned to spend eternity |
|
Travellers of the deep |
|
(Repeat *) |
