The Captain and Me

歌詞

Deep as a river, wide as the sea Changing the ways of a captain and me I could be happy, Lord, so then should he If all of the universe unveiled itself to me So then a day flows into night Down the street the beggar man who finds himself in wine If I am a good man and sure in all my ways The captain of a starship that's homeward bound today Growing, growing, changing every day Knowing, showing all my worldly ways Hear the chimes, hear how they ring Marking time all through the day A whisper, an answer, a cry in the night Break down, turn around, a feeling of fright The Indian, the Black man, the Asian who see A door that is opening, and they're going to be free Growing, growing, changing every day Knowing, showing all my worldly ways Hear the chimes, hear how they ring Marking time all through the day We are all acceptable We are all a place in time Moving through a passageway Bringing forth the end of time Growing, growing, changing every day Knowing, showing all my worldly ways Hear the chimes, hear how they ring Marking time all through the day Light the fire, start the day Mark the light that shows the way Changing times of fortunes past We will all be free at last We are the people of the roundabout We are the sails upon the sea We're gonna be there when everybody laughs about The way that we are changing, you and me, yeah We are the people of the roundabout We are the sails upon the sea We're gonna be there when everybody laughs about The way that we are changing, you and me We are the people of the roundabout We are the sails upon the sea
