The Silent Boatman
Parliament
It is said that when we leave this world
If we have suffered we will be saved
So I'll lift up my head, whoever I am
What I cannot do here
There's a place that I can
I'm waiting for the silent boatman
To ferry me across the unknown waters
In this life, though I've tried
Many things couldn't be
Closed minds with faces looking down onto me
Parting means grief, but only for those left
All men descend into earth at
The very same depth
I'm waiting for the silent boatman
To ferry me across the unknown waters
I wonder if in death
Man at last can love man
Stripped of all life's gifts to him
No ego to remain
When you reach Jordan's bank
There's no money, power or fame
No third or second class
The fare is all the same
I'm waiting for the silent boatman
(silent boatman)
To ferry me across the unknown waters
(unknown waters)
I'm waiting for the silent boatman
(silent boatman)
To ferry me across the unknown waters
(unknown waters)
I'm waiting for the silent boatman
(silent boatman)
To ferry me across the unknown waters
(unknown waters)
I'm waiting for the silent boatman
(silent boatman)
To ferry me across the unknown waters
(unknown waters)
I'm waiting for the silent boatman
(silent boatman)
To ferry me across the unknown waters
(unknown waters)
I'm waiting for the silent boatman
(silent boatman)
To ferry me across the unknown waters
(unknown waters)
I'm waiting for the silent boatman
(silent boatman)
To ferry me across the unknown waters
(unknown waters)
I'm waiting for the silent boatman
(silent boatman)
To ferry me across the unknown waters
(unknown waters)
I'm waiting for the silent boatman
(silent boatman)
To ferry me across the unknown waters
(unknown waters)
I'm waiting for the silent boatman
(silent boatman)
To ferry me across the unknown waters
(unknown waters)
