Show of Hands - Captains lyrics



hours before we land
A morning slowly breaks
and the dawn’s lifting

Only I’m awake
so gently in my hand
I trace a hundred lives
through the darkness drifting

In wings of steel I will enfold you
My arms are strong and I will hold you

Far out at sea
a hundred miles from shore
A storm begins to rise
and the tide’s turning

Driving wind and rain
will try my skills once more
Testing yet again
my craft and learning

Oh my love
To calmer seas I will steer you
and you’ll be safe when I am near you

Though we search on every side
with a compass and a guide
for someone with the atlas and a chart
And we say please be the captain of my heart

We turn away from town
and we steer towards the west
The rain beats on the road
and the sun is setting

You close your eyes and soon you’re sleeping
and as you dream you’re in my keeping
oh at last when you awake and look around you
I have brought you home and I have found you
