You Are The Captain Lyrics by Luke James Williams

Drove

2018

[Verse 1]
You are the captain, I am the sea birds
I am the row boat, you are the tide
You were the searchlight but I had gone missing
All that I wanted was to be there
[Verse 2]
You are the headline, I am the misprint
You are the lion, I am the mouse
You are the bloodline, I am just bleeding
All that I wanted was to be there
All that I wanted was to be there
[Chorus]
Now that you’ve drawn the line
Let me say one last time
All that I wanted was to be there
[Verse 3]
Did you reel me in just to cut me loose?
Is there anything that means that much to you?
So go play the apple tree while I struggle to take root
But it’s not your fault that I’m barely hanging on
All that I wanted was to be there
[Chorus]
I didn’t need some big part
Not the flame nor the spark
All that I wanted was to be there
[Outro]
You are the captain, I am the sea birds
I am the row boat and you are the tide
You are the bloodline, I am just bleeding
All that I wanted was to be there
All that I wanted was to be there
