Capitano

We all of us dream
We all have our doubts
My brother in song
Breath in breath out

Maybe you’re the captain 
The pilot or the boat
Wherever you are my brother
Keep your lights afloat

Tell them what they need to hear
Tell them all’s well
Tell them about beauty oh
Show them krakens and hell

Sail on my Capitano, sail on 
With your dream and your song
Sail on for us all

Now we all feel like fakes
And we all have our doubts
Don’t we trade in what remains
When the tide goes out

But isn’t that our purpose
Shouldn’t everybody know
That there’s treasure in the waterline
Where the pirates and the children dare to go

Sail on my Capitano sail on
With your dream and your song 
Sail on for us all

And tonight you’re a tilting Don Quixote
Let’s throw all our empty glasses down
A bunch of drunken Rabalais 
Out on the town

And tomorrow when the petals fall
Perhaps you will sing like The General
Sweet Lorca and Baudelaire
On triumph and despair

Sail on My Capitano sail on
With your dream and your song sail on sail on

And the tide comes in and the tide goes out 
Sail on for us all
My brother in song
Dream on dream on dream on
