2/6/1997 alternate lyrics

Crazy, as I may
make my way through this world
it's for no one but me to share
what direction I turn in
'cause I am the captain of this ship
eyes, eyelids and kissing lips
the same as it was and should be
when you will

you give
oh we won't be back again
you give
and oh you [?]
you give
oh in the homes back again
you give
the same respect for them
that turn and change

ah, don't you see the strange way the girl dances away her day
ah, even ridiculed display won't stop her feet from moving
because I am the captain of this ship
eyes, eyelids and kissing lips
just the same as it was [?]

maybe it's strange
I live a lie
I'm coming back again

oh turn back babe
the lights from yourself
and turn the spotlight down
oh turn it on yourself
because you are the captain of this ship
eyes, eyelids and kissing lips
just the same as for all
I reign and waiting to be

why should I be hypnotized by someone else's lie?
why should I, oh, take time and pride in
what someone else believes?
oh, tell me go on,
won't you roll on then maybe you

you give
oh on the backside
on the wind
you give
and oh me [?]
you give
more than I've ever seen before
you give

[?] be all I can
the same as it was [?]
me believe my head my heart
Captain
main lyrics
Crazy as I may
make my way through this world, oh
it's for no one but me to say
what direction I should turn in now

Well, I am the captain of this ship
curious hands and fingertips
day after day
how I long for you, my love, how I long

Strange, but it seems
like there's a mutiny brewing inside of me now
but I don't want your pity
only the promise that you'll stay with me tonight

I am the captain of this ship
curious hands and fingertips
but day after day, oh, how I long for you like crazy

I know, my love, how you do me
how low, my love, come on, let's go again
oh, no, I love everything, oh, won't you
play with me again, got all night

Same old song, won't you come stay
oh, my love, after all

But how could I even try to fight
after falling into your arms
oh, mesmerized by your smile
the way it lights up under your eyes
how could I even try?
love, won't you stay with me?

Oh, well, love, how you do me
oh, my love, come on, let's go again
my love, my love, everything
oh, won't you play with me again?
we got all night

The same old song, won't you come dance
my love, after all?
