The Captain And The Kid ( In Albume Havana Daydreamin')
I never used to miss the chance To climb upon his knee Listen to the many tales Of life upon the sea
We'd go sailin' back on barkentines An' talk of things he did Tomorrow just a day away For the captain and the kid
His world had gone from sailin' ships To rakin' mom's backyard He never could adjust to land Although he tried so hard
We both were growin' older then Wiser with our years That's when I came to understand The course his heart still steered
He died about a month ago While winter filled the air Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com And though I cried I was so proud To love a man so rare
He's somewhere on the ocean now A place he outta be With one hand on the starboard rail He's wavin' back at me
I never used to miss the chance To climb upon his knee Listen to his many tales Of life upon the sea
We'd go sailin' back on barkentines Talk of things he did The world was just a day away For the captain and the kid
For the captain And this kid
