Isaac tied upon the bow searches for land
Milton's hands upon the wheel steering us on
Seventy souls upon the deck and may God save us all

The strange brotherhood of the blue ship
And Rolff watches over the edge counting the fishes
Lost upon the drifting tide and the pull of the moon


They said there's water running in all our veins as they
Cast us off

Pulled forever back and on, back and on
The strange brotherhood of the blue ship


There is no wind that I can feel
There is no place for us to be
Just the strange brotherhood of the blue ship
