Doobie Brothers - The Captain & Me Lyrics
Tom johnstonDeep as a river, wide as the seaChangin the ways of a captain and meI could be happy, lord, so then should heIf all of the universe unveiled itself to meSo then a day flows into nightDown the street the beggar man who finds himself in wineIf I am a good man and sure in all my waysThe captain of a starship thats homeward bound todayGrowin, growin, changin evry dayKnowin, showin all my worldly waysHear the chimes, hear how they ringMarking time all through the dayA whisper, an answer, a cry in the nightBreak down, turn around, a feeling of frightThe indian, the black man, the asian who seeA door that is opening, and theyre goin to be freeGrowin, growin, changin evry dayKnowin, showin all my worldly waysHear the chimes, hear how they ringMarking time all through the dayWe are all acceptable, we are all a place in timeMoving through a passageway, bringing forth the end of timeGrowin, growin, changin evry dayKnowin, showin all my worldly waysHear the chimes, hear how they ringMarking time all through the dayLight the fire, start the day, mark the light that shows the wayChanging times of fortunes past, we will all be free at lastWe are the people of the round aboutWe are the sails upon the seaWere gonna be there when evry body laughs aboutThe way that we are changin, you and me, yeahWe are the people of the round aboutWe are the sails upon the seaWere gonna be there when evry body laughs aboutThe way that we are changin, you and me, yeahWe are the people of the round aboutWe are the sails upon the sea
