Captain, My Captain Lyrics

Martina & Joshua Captain, My Captain

VERSE 1
Oh Captain my Captain
That fleeting moment has now fled
To catch the rose in my hand
Because you fell cold and dead

I was looking for a crossroad
To choose a way
But is not time for marrow
And I can't go away

CHORUS
Oh Captain my Captain
I would stay here but it seems too far
‘Cause I would like to live being young
Before getting old in a bar

VERSE 2
I ripped all the pages full of lies
Even destroying all the poems danceable
I could not find anything
To make my life unforgettable

We have to open up our eyes
Let's stop to cover our mouth
Keep fighting to find our voice
We want to cry out

CHORUS
Oh Captain my Captain
I would stay here but it seems too far
‘Cause I would like to live being young
Before getting old in a bar

BRIDGE
Slowly our cities are falling down
And people are dying inside
They've killed even your life and now
We hope to reach you in heaven

CHORUS
Oh Captain my Captain
I would stay here but it seems too far
‘Cause I would like to live being young
Before getting old in a bar
