I breathe the same air as you do   Though my lungs drown in water   You will survive   When like a fish, you dive      You we're born to a life    On a sunken island   A once so proud countryside    Is silent   They don't believe me   We've got saltwater in our eyes   To prove our true nature   With a thirst too hard to slake   It's not enough with the deepest well      I breathe the same air as you do   Though my lungs drown in water   You will survive   When like a fish, you dive      I have the same need as you have   Need an endless horizon   To keep the mood   And save me from the prude      I'm a sailor on a ship   That's always sinking   From time to time   You've got me thinking   That I should be the first mate   Now I'm floating next to you   Hoping for a quick rescue   And I'm happy with myself   I feel relaxed and it's getting late      I breathe the same air as you do   Though my lungs drown in water   You will survive   When like a fish, you dive      I have the same need as you have   Need an endless horizon   To keep the mood   And save me from the prude
