Captain of Maybe

Bettie Serveert

You put the pleasure in my hand
Sending out those signs that I just don't understand
All wasted, with your belly in the sand, moving so slow

This is not a rehearsal
This is what we've been waiting for
Can you hear the sirens call?
They're too loud to ignore

And you decide, you've seen enough
This awful scene is way too rough
Holding out for so long, but you've got it all wrong

This is not an easy tune, it's gonna grow so slow
But it means so much more to me than you'll ever know

'Cause you are the Captain of Maybe
You put the pleasure right into my hands
If you are the Captain of Maybe
Then capture me if you can

I'm drawing a circle on this invisible map of our lives
Placing thumb tacks on all the dreams that we've ever had
And I agree, we've seen too much
It sometimes seems like we're way out of touch
With the things that we cannot control
Well, you gotta let it all go

This is not an easy tune, it's gonna take some time
But it means so much more to me
Than what we've ever left behind

'Cause you are the Captain of Maybe
You put the pleasure right into my hands
If you are the Captain of Maybe
Then capture me if you can

If you are the Captain of Maybe
Then capture me if you can
