The Captain
The Captain -Kasey Chambers
Well I don't have as many friends because
I'm not as pretty as I was
I've kicked myself at times
Because I've lied
So I will have to learn to stand my ground
I'll tell 'em I won't be around
I'll move on over to your town and hide
And you be the captain
And I'll be no one
And you can carry me away
If you want to
And you can lay low
Just like your father
And if I tread upon your feet
You just say so
'Cos you're the captain I am no one
I tend to feel as though I owe one
To you
To you
Well I have handed all my efforts in
I searched here for my second wind
Is there somewhere here to let me in I asked
So I slammed the doors they slammed at me
I found the place I'm meant to be
I figured out my destiny at last
And you be the captain
And I'll be no one
And you can carry me away
If you want to
And you can lay low
Just like your father
And if I tread upon your feet
You just say so
'Cos you're the captain I am no one
I tend to feel as though I owe one
To you
To you
Did I forget to thank you
For the ride
I hadn't tried I tend to runaway and hide
And you be the captain
And I'll be no one
And you can carry me away
If you want to
And you can lay low
Just like your father
And if I tread upon your feet
You just say so
'Cos you're the captain I am no one
I tend to feel as though I owe one
To you
'Cos you're the captain I am no one
I tend to feel as though I owe one
To you
To you
'Cos you're the captain
I am no one
And I owe one
To you
