Captain, My Captain

Captain, My Captain

captain, my captain take command
I'll put the mission in your hands
captain, my captain take control
you'll be the pilot of my soul

she said captain, captain take me tonight
I'll never ever make it alone
brought me to a rocket
and looked into the night
pointed at her far away home

spun ten times round jupiter
did my time on mars
rode those rings, those saturn rings
now I thanks my stars

captain, my captain take command
I'll put the mission in your hands
captain, my captain take control
you'll be the pilot of my soul

strapped into the capsule
guided by the moon
took it way past orbit that night
time warp, space warp second to none
I lost her before the mission was done

temperatures rise tonight in the cosmic sea
a beacon guides my sight as if you're trying to find me
temperatures rise tonight in the cosmic sea
bring me home tonight and my captain you will be

spun ten times round jupiter
did my time on mars
rode those rings, those saturn rings
now I thanks my stars

captain, my captain take command
I'll put the mission in your hands
captain, my captain take control
you'll be the pilot of my soul
