Black Captain - Bonnie "Prince" Billy |
| [00:18.93] |
Ever see someone do so well |
| [00:26.24] |
That none could ever stop him |
| [00:34.60] |
Commanding o'er the hardest swell |
| [00:41.59] |
With no force or fault to top him |
| [00:49.03] |
Well under all and every word |
| [00:56.79] |
Is hidden a woman or man |
| [01:04.66] |
Who lights and inspires some higher desires |
| [01:11.02] |
And allows him to do what he can |
| [01:23.91] |
What power he has only I know |
| [01:39.12] |
And now I have let my captain go |
| [02:10.62] |
I was his true and he bade my fortune |
| [02:17.37] |
And he leapt from on top of my shoulder |
| [02:25.66] |
He could lead pure when my worship was sure |
| [02:32.34] |
And many times even step bolder |
| [02:40.03] |
He loved me and needed saw trouble and greeted |
| [02:47.29] |
For trouble is best met head on |
| [02:55.03] |
What seems so distinguished became plainly vanquished |
| [03:02.77] |
When I left to find life on my own |
| [03:14.45] |
What power he has only I know |
| [03:30.32] |
And now I have let my captain go |
| [04:15.63] |
Now men laugh at him and say |
| [04:22.50] |
That better men number in thousands |
| [04:30.30] |
Nobody ever goes out of his way |
| [04:37.66] |
To lessen his clowns as they crowd him |
| [04:45.28] |
And I am nearby and I watch with a sigh |
| [04:52.72] |
As my captain curls up like a cripple |
| [05:00.14] |
And hope that he goes where nobody knows |
| [05:07.57] |
Under sea and leaves not a ripple |
| [05:26.43] |
What power he has only I know |
| [05:41.31] |
And now I have let my captain go |
