Lyrics Show Of Hands

Show Of Hands

Captains

High above the earth

hours before we land morning slowly breaks

and dawns lifting

the only one awake so gentle in my hands

i trace a hundred lives through darkness drifting

i will bring you back

i will hold you

my arms are strong they will enfold you

far out at sea

a hundred miles from shore

a storm begins to rise and the tide's turning

driving wind and rain to try my skill once more

testing yet again all my craft and leaning

all my love to calmer seas i will stear you

and your be safe when i am near you

for we search on every side

for compass and a guide

someone with the an and the charts

oh we say please be the captin of my heart

my heart

we turn away from town

and stear towards the west

the rain beats on the roof as the sun is setting

you close your eyes and see you sleeping

and as you dream your in my keeping

at last when you wake and look around you

i have brough you back and i have found you
