The Captain
Amy McKnight & ShipYard Throw me a barrel Lend me a ladder I am the sailor, you were the Captain If you were the seagull I am the wave That catches your wing Crest of your curve I am the ripple that lapped at the foot of your bay I've not forgotten all that you got I will not forget you Not on the surface, not underneath I've not forgotten all that you got Woke up on dawn It's salty eye morning I am the rope, you were the mooring If you're the coordinates I am the map Lake by a Mountain, Son of a Knight I have ensured your way as well as I can I've not forgotten all that you got I will not forget you Not on the surface, not underneath I've not forgotten all that you got Like a rudder that slices thick winter ices Oceans we sailed Breaths that were held Well you were the morning light of my sun Orbit refracted, angle and axis Deeply reflected through the atmosphere |
