Lyrics

Look here, I’m talking to you,
captain life has a message new,
give yourself away to the world
and you’re through the blues

So long rusty roads,
I’ve earned my wings to fly my load,
no shadows in the Captain’s eye,
I know it’s so

Grab a line, we’re moving fast
to see the joy your eyes have passed,
straight through that cloud up ahead,
no fears when the world is your bed

Captain Life steer my boat
through the break in the storm

Good god, I think we’re through,
the captain’s liner’s coming into view,
no time for fifth avenue interviews Mr.Blues

Count the changes flashing by,
no reflection in tv eyes,
there is a poet within man’s skies,
don’t hide, don’t say die

Grab a line, we’re moving fast
to see the joy your eyes have passed,
straight through that cloud up ahead,
no fears when the world is your bed

Captain life would you steer my boat
through the lightest break in the darkest storm

My captain on the shore,
my captain evermore
