[English]

The mistakes I've made

That caused pain

I could have done without

All my selfish thoughts

All my pride

The things I hide

You have forgot about

They're all behind you

They'll never find you

They're on the ocean floor

Your sins are forgotten

They're on the bottom of the ocean floor

My misdeeds

All my greed

All the things that haunt me now

They're not a pretty sight to see

But they're wiped away

By a mighty, mighty wave

A mighty, mighty wave

They're all behind you

They'll never find you

They're on the ocean floor

Your sins are forgotten

They're on the bottom of the ocean floor

Your sins are erased

And they are no more

They're out on the ocean floor

Take them away

To return no more

Take them away

To the ocean floor

To the ocean floor

To the ocean floor

They're all behind you

They'll never find you

They're on the ocean floor

(They are behind you)

Your sins are forgotten

They're on the bottom of the ocean floor

Your sins are erased

And they are no more

They're out on the ocean floor

Your sins are forgotten

They're on the bottom

Of the ocean floor

Your sins are erased

And they are no more

They're out on the ocean floor
