Captain lyrics
by Nicole Atkins
[Verse 1: Nicole Atkins]
Down by Shark River
You were not the swimmer that you used to be
Drifting, lost in the outlet
Don’t forget to come home to me
[Chorus: Nicole Atkins & Britt Daniel]
And when you’re found a wreck
I’ll pull you on deck
I can be your captain for once
Let me be your captain for once
I can be your captain for once
So come on back to my arms
[Post-Chorus: Nicole Atkins & Britt Daniel]
And if we have to burn the sails
There is no shame to let it fail
[Chorus: Nicole Atkins & Britt Daniel]
And when you’re found a wreck
I’ll pull you on deck
I can be your captain for once
And when you’re found a wreck
I’ll pull you on deck
I can be your captain for once
Let me be your captain for once
I can be your captain for once
So come on back to my arms
