Crazy as I may make my way
Through this world
It's for no one but me to say
What direction I should turn

Because I am the captain of, this ship
Eyes, eyelids, and kissing lips
It's the same as it was
And shouldn't be you on we going
And you give
The question where that answers me to when
Are we?
The answer where we [?lie/lay?] even when
[???]
Wake me, get me no where, I'll find my own

People say isn't it crazy the way
The girl dances and the things she say
And more than that oh have you seen the way
And the things she do oh in front of us all

And she sings,
I am the captain of this ship
Eyes, eyelids, and kissing lips
It's just the same as it was
And the way
Sing a [?damn street?]
Has to be, to carry on this way

She said why should I
Compromise my dream
Why should I turn myself around on me
Why should I [???] because somebody don't think it good of me
Why, why should I go and turn the day the way you then you [?wait?]
You give
Alone hand in water again
You give
Answers the question why
You give
The long long time you got to spend
You give
My love over and over lay dancing
You give
And over alone myself away
You give
I'll hide under a stone to hide my faith
You give
And the road I, the road my home await
You give
So [?take?] this road again, to me

Same as it was and will always[…]
Wait up, baby
[?have a home?]
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?
