Captain, My Captain Lyrics

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
