"Nobody Knows" lyrics

There's a serpent on the river
Heard a sermon from the scripture
Are you saint or are you sinner, wicked soul

I still don't believe in magic
But the faith of the fanatic
It can creep in when the panic takes hold

When nothing rings true
I lie down next to you

Nobody knows
Where the holy water flows
Or what lies below
When you're giving up the ghost
Nobody knows

There's a path to El Dorado
That a man told you to follow
Promises of a tomorrow paved in gold

But if you're searching for the fountain
Tryna to climb the holy mountain
You might find the hollow ground will leave you cold

We never know why
Just keep me warm tonight

Nobody knows
Where the holy water flows
Or what lies below
When you're giving up the ghost
Nobody knows

Nobody knows
Just where we will rest our bones
Or where the wind blows
Oh oh so just hold me close
Nobody knows

Nobody
Nobody
Nobody knows
Nobody
There's nobody
But your body
And my body

Nobody knows
Where the holy water flows
Or what lies below
When you're giving up the ghost
Nobody knows

Nobody knows
Just where we will rest our bones
Or where the wind blows
Oh oh so just hold me close
Nobody knows

(Aah) Nobody (aah) knows where the water goes
(Aah) Nobody (aah) knows
