My Sad Captains
ELBOW · The Take Off And Landing Of Everything 2014 · Track 07 of 10
I'm running out of miracles ​Oh my soul And the streets alive with one-man shows ​Oh my soul The corner boys were moved along ​Oh my soul We're plummeting like crippled crows ​Oh my soul ​ Oh long before you and I were born Others beat these benches with their empty cups To the night and it's stars To be here and now and who we are ​ Another sunrise with my sad captains With who I choose to lose my mind And if it's so we only pass this way but once What a perfect waste of time ​ The BMX apothecary Oh my soul The architect of infamy Oh my soul For each and every train we missed Oh my soul A bitter little Eucharist Oh my soul
Oh long before you and I were born Others beat these benches with their empty cups To the night and it's stars To be here and now and who we are
Another sunrise with my sad captains With who I choose to lose my mind And if it's so we only pass this way but once What a perfect waste of time
Another sunrise with my sad captains With who I choose to lose my mind And if it's so we only pass this way but once What a perfect waste of time
Another sunrise with my sad captains With who I choose to lose my mind And if it's so we only pass this way but once What a perfect waste of time
What a perfect waste of time
