Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well, I don't have as many friends because
I'm not as pretty as I was
I've kicked myself at times because I've lied
So I will have to learn to stand my ground
I'll tell them I won't be around
I'll move on over to your town and hide
[Chorus]
And you be the captain, and I'll be no one
And you can carry me away if you want to
And you can lay low just like your father
And if I tread upon your feet, you just say so
'Cause you're the captain, I am no one
I tend to feel as though I owe one to you
To you
[Verse 2]
Well, I have handed all my efforts in
Searched here for my second wind
Is there somewhere here to let me in, I asked
So I slammed the doors they slammed at me
I found the place I'm meant to be
I figured out my destiny at last
[Chorus]
And you be the captain, and I'll be no one
And you can carry me away if you want to
And you can lay low just like your father
And if I tread upon your feet, you just say so
'Cause you're the captain, I am no one
I tend to feel as though I owe one to you
To you
[Bridge]
Did I forget to thank you for the ride
I hadn't tried, I tend to runaway and hide
[Chorus]
And you be the captain, and I'll be no one
And you can carry me away if you want to
And you can lay low just like your father
And if I tread upon your feet, you just say so
'Cause you're the captain, I am no one
I tend to feel as though I owe one to you
[Outro]
'Cause you're the captain, I am no one
I tend to feel as though I owe one to you (To you)
'Cause you're the captain, and I am no one
And I owe one to you
