Текст песни: Shadow Captain + перевод

Oh, captain what are we hiding from?

You’ve been hiding from the start

Did some lover steal your heart

Or did the full moon make you mad?

Oh, captain why these speechless seas

That never come to land?

Oh, I need to understand

Could a little light be that bad?

I can see your hands are roughened

By the wheel and the rope

I’d like to look to you for hope

I think it’s hiding there

This boat is blacked out like a city

Awaiting bombers in the night

Oh, you hold your helm so tight

And yet the sky seems so fair

Who guides this ship

Dreaming through the seas

Turning and searching

Whichever way you please?

Speak to me

I need to see your face

Shadowy captain

In a darkened space

If I were to spy a city

Floating just above the sea

Could we stop and look for me

Among those playing on the pier?

Or would you turn away knowing

It was still a ways away

And if I was there today

You could not see me all that clear

Who guides this ship

Dreaming through the seas

Turning and searching

Whichever way you please?

Speak to me

I need to see your face

Shadowy captain

In a darkened space

Shadow captain of a charcoal ship

Shadow captain of a charcoal ship

Trying to give the light the slip
