And how will I stay strong? How many misfortunes will we conquer? How will I carry on? Oh-oh, carry on With every peak and valley With every white knuckled fist With everything I've lost and learned I won't let go of this grip With every storm we weather I would never miss I won't give up, I won't let go I'm going down with the ship, oh-oh ♪ Oh, my captain, where are we going How many battles will we win? How many brave souls will we lose to the deepest blue? Will we see our home again? Oh-oh, home again With every peak and valley With every white knuckled fist With everything I've lost and learned I won't let go of this grip With every storm we weather I would never miss I won't give up, I won't let go I'm going down with the ship Oh-oh, I'm going down with the ship Whoa-oh, I'm going down with the ship ♪ Oh, my good friend, let's start something Then throw it all out to the wind
