Lyrics:I am the captain and I have been told
That tomorrow we land and my ship has been sold
Now
losing this boat is worth scarce a mention
I think of the crew, most of all the first
ensign
For all we learned the sea

Guiding a ship, it takes more than your
skill
It's the compass inside it's the strength of your will
The first ensign watched as
tempests all tried me
I sang in the wind as if God were beside me
For all we learned the
sea

You take the wheel one more time like I showed you
We've reached the strait once
even I could not go through

I am the captain and I have been told
But I am not
shaken, I am eight years old
And you are still young, but you'll understand
That the stars
of the sea are the same for the land
And we came to learn the sea
