- Taking Water Lyrics / with translations[Verse 1]
Cold cold ashes on the ground
Nothing lost and nothing's found
Friends and loved ones falling down
Can't you hear that mournful sound?
Nothing left but memories
Of things I still can't stand to see
There's an empty spot in me
Where my hometown used to be
[Chorus]
This old boat is taking water
It won't be long 'til it goes down
We've had enough to push us over
Time to turn the wheel around
[Verse 2]
Neighborhoods left to decay
People died or walked away
Nowhere left for them to stay
While we just look the other way
[Chorus]
This old boat is taking water
It won't be long 'til it goes down
Had enough to push us over
Time to turn the wheel around
[Verse 3]
Waves keep pounding through the night
Lost without a ray of light
Going down without a fight
Is there still time to make it right?
[Chorus]
This old boat is taking water
It won't be long 'til it goes down
Had enough to push us over
Time to turn the wheel around
Cold cold ashes on the ground
Nothing lost and nothing's found
Friends and loved ones falling down
Can't you hear that mournful sound?
Nothing left but memories
Of things I still can't stand to see
There's an empty spot in me
Where my hometown used to be
[Chorus]
This old boat is taking water
It won't be long 'til it goes down
We've had enough to push us over
Time to turn the wheel around
[Verse 2]
Neighborhoods left to decay
People died or walked away
Nowhere left for them to stay
[Chorus]
This old boat is taking water
It won't be long 'til it goes down
Had enough to push us over
Time to turn the wheel around
[Verse 3]
Waves keep pounding through the night
Lost without a ray of light
Going down without a fight
Is there still time to make it right?
[Chorus]
This old boat is taking water
It won't be long 'til it goes down
Had enough to push us over
Time to turn the wheel around
