Sur Le Même Bateau
Céline Dion
On the Same Boat
On the gangways at boarding
Economy or first class, behind or in front
We carry the trunks from the docks to the deck
Loading steel, cursing away
Just missing a sign, a word from the captain
From the cabins to the kitchens
On the same boat
A sip of champagne, a toast at departure
In the holds, hard labor and watch hours
Elegant parties, waltzes or tangos
Shadows in pain, a bad gut rot
Waiting for the stopover,
Athens or Macao
Under the same stars
On the same boat
In the heat of the engines, sailor suffers
By the pool, the beauties and the handsome
Engine rooms, luxurious lounges
Here sweat is the greatest luxury up top
But when a storm comes, a sudden wave
All souls worry
On the same boat
When the stars get involved
On the vast ocean
When everything becomes fragile facing the elements
No more rank, no more class, no more hard labor or beauty
Everyone with the same anxiety
On the same boat {x2}{music}
On the same, on the same boat{music}
On the same boat
