1/21/1997 alternate lyrics

this is sort of rough, the recording isn't great, but I think it's fairly accurate

Crazy as I may
make my way through this world
it's for no one but me to say
which direction I should turn in
'cause I am the captain of this ship
eyes, eyelids and kissing lips
the same as it was before
it backed us up and closes

Why should I drain my time rolling
leave you by?
why should I beg ___
just to get by ___

To give, roll me back again
to give, and I lay
you give, noticed by ___
you give,
play all lead me back to me

Leaving differences
oh we got together and from behind way
and if I make sure has been laid
for me if I have a way
'cause I am the captain of a way
leave me leave light
have to be
ah coming back again

say
I would love to believe myself
somebody I could lean upon ___
I would love to find someone else
to bathe upon with old again

why should I leave behind a dream I can believe
why should I leave behind
and make up my senses
so roll me back again
you give, want you back
you give, so roll me back again
you give
pray for me, play again
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?
