Cerys Matthews - A Captain Needs a Ship lyrics

Artist: Cerys Matthews

album: Don't Look Down


On a leap of faith I found myself
On the banks of the River Nile
Don't look up and don't look down
I was lost, but I wasn't out
Someone called an ambulance
I heard the siren loud and clear
So I dived into the water deep
And I aimed for the frontier
And it ain't so hard to float downstream
When you're stuck in the middle of a summer dream
A captain needs a ship if he's gonna
Navigate the storm
A boatman needs some wind if he's gonna sail
From shore to shore
Delta flowers go to seed
And the grass gets overgrown
I'm gonna live forever
But you'll never get to Heaven if you stay too long
But it ain't so hard to float downstream
When you're stuck in the middle of a summer dream
The captain said, "Now you've made your bed
Now it's time to settle down"
But I can't do that and I can't do this
If I'm stuck in the Aswan Dam
Can't look up and you can't look down
Can't look up and you can't look down
Can't look up and you can't look down
Can't look up and you can't look down
Can't look up and you can't look down
Can't do this and you can't do that
Can't do this and you can't do that
