I'm your captain/closer to home

Everybody, listen to me,
And return me, my ship.
I’m your captain, I’m your captain,
Although I’m feeling mighty sick.

I’ve been lost now, days uncounted,
And its months since I’ve seen home.
Can you hear me, can you hear me,
Or am I all alone?

If you return me, to my home port,
I will kiss you mother earth.
Take me back now, take me back now,
To the port of my birth.

Am I in my cabin dreaming, or are you really scheming,
To take my ship away from me?

Youd better think about it, I just cant live without it.
So, please dont take my ship from me.
Yeah, yeah, yeah ... I’m getting closer to my home ...
I’m getting closer to my home ...
I’m getting closer to my home ...
I’m getting closer to my home ...
Ohhhh ...

I can feel the hand, of a stranger,
And its tightening, around my throat.
Heaven help me, heaven help me,
Take this stranger from my boat.

I’m your captain, I’m your captain,
Although I’m feeling mighty sick.
Everybody, listen to me,
And return me, my ship.

I’m your captain, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I’m your captain, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I’m your captain, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I’m your captain, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

I’m getting closer to my home ...
I’m getting closer to my home ...
I’m getting closer to my home ...
I’m getting closer to my home ...
Ohhhh ...

I’m getting closer to my home ...
I’m getting closer to my home ...
I’m getting closer to my home ...
I’m getting closer to my home ...
