ever see someone do so well
that none could ever stop him
commanding for hardest swell

with no force or faul to tap him
well, under all and everyone
is hidden a woman or a man

who lights and inspires
some higher desires
and allows him to do what he can

what power he has
only I know
and now I have let my captain go


I was his true and he made my fortune
he lived from on top of my shoulder

he could lead pure when my worship was sure
and many times even step ...
he loved me and needed some trouble and..

for trouble is best met ...
what seems so distinguished became plainly vanquished
when i left to find live on my own


what power he has
only I know

and now I have let my captain go

now men laugh at him and say

that better men .. number ...
nobody ever goes out of his way
to lesson his clouds as they crowd in

and I am nearby and I watch with a sigh
as my captain ...up like a cripple
and hope that he goes where nobody knows

undersea and leaves not ...

what power he has

only I know
and now I have let my captain go
