2/8/1997 alternate lyrics

Crazy as I may
make my way through this world
it's for no one but me to say
which direction I should turn in

Because I am the captain of this ship
eyes, eyelids, and kissing lips
the same as it was and should be forever again

you give
but you don't know while away
you give
and you have
you give
roll me back again
you give
cray for eve again
and me

And people say, "Oh, look at the way
the girl dances her life away
oh, and even more than that
all the crazy, crazy things she do"

She sings, "I am the captain of this ship
eyes, eyelids, and kissing lips"
Just the same as it was
away
leave to me
rain and I am coming back to you

Why should I bend myself around to make you smile?
why should I wear your blinders to give you style?
why should I compromise my high
so that you can rain on me

you give
and roll the hand is back again
you give
and rein me along
you give
I play, I won't be here too long
you give
so wait and me, waiting me along
you give
and reins to roll them back again
you give
and play me a while
you give
and last ride is on the way
you give
play, play me again
by your side

we're the same as we were
and wait
dance, you dance, do your thing
and you while away
Captain
main lyrics
Crazy as I may
make my way through this world, oh
it's for no one but me to say
what direction I should turn in now

Well, I am the captain of this ship
curious hands and fingertips
day after day
how I long for you, my love, how I long

Strange, but it seems
like there's a mutiny brewing inside of me now
but I don't want your pity
only the promise that you'll stay with me tonight

I am the captain of this ship
curious hands and fingertips
but day after day, oh, how I long for you like crazy

I know, my love, how you do me
how low, my love, come on, let's go again
oh, no, I love everything, oh, won't you
play with me again, got all night

Same old song, won't you come stay
oh, my love, after all

But how could I even try to fight
after falling into your arms
oh, mesmerized by your smile
the way it lights up under your eyes
how could I even try?
love, won't you stay with me?

Oh, well, love, how you do me
oh, my love, come on, let's go again
my love, my love, everything
oh, won't you play with me again?
we got all night

The same old song, won't you come dance
my love, after all?
