The Captain

Well I don’t have as many friends because
I’m not as pretty as I was
I’ve kicked myself at times because I’ve lied
So I will have to learn to stand my ground
I’ll tell 'em I won’t be around
I’ll move on over to your town and hide
And you be the captain
And I’ll be no-one
And you can carry me away if you want to And you can lay low
Just like your father and if I tread upon your feet you just say so
'cos you’re the captain, I am no-one,
I tend to feel as though I owe one to you
Well I have handed all my efforts in I searched here for my second wind
Is there somewhere here to let me in I asked
So I slammed the doors they slammed at me
I found the place I’m meant to be
I figured out my destiny at last
Did I forget to thank you for the ride
I hadn’t tried I tend to runaway and hide
