Shadow Captain Lyrics


Oh, captain, what are we hiding from?
You've been hiding from the start
Did some lover steal your heart?
Or did the full moon make you mad?
Oh, captain, why are these beachless seas
That never come to land?
Oh, I need to understand
Could a little light be that bad?
I can see your hands are roughened
By the wheel and the rope
I'd like to look to you for hope
I think it's hiding there
This boat is blacked out like a city
Awaiting bombers in the night
Oh you hold your helm so tight
And yet the sky seems so fair
Who guides this ship
Dreaming through the seas

Turning and searching
Whichever way you please?
Speak to me
I need to see your face
Shadowy captain
In a darkened space
If I were to spy a city
Floating just above the sea
Could we stop and look for me
Among those playing on the pier?
Or would you turn away knowing
It was still a ways away?
And if I was there today
You could not see me all that clear
Who guides this ship
Dreaming through the seas
Turning and searching
Whichever way you please?
Speak to me
I need to see your face
Shadowy captain
In a darkened space
Shadow captain of a charcoal ship
Shadow captain of a charcoal ship
Trying to give the light the slip

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Crosby, Stills & Nash is a pioneering folk/rock supergroup formed by David Crosby, Stephen Stills and Graham Nash - refugees from three 1960s bands: The Byrds, Buffalo Springfield, and The Hollies. The band is primarily known for their three-part vocal harmonies. They are strongly associated with the 1969 Woodstock Festival. They are commonly referred to by their initials CSN.

The trio's first eponymous album was released in May 1969 and was an immediate hit, spawning two Top 40 hit singles and receiving key airplay on the new FM radio format.

In late summer 1969, the trio expanded to a quartet with Neil Young with the name changing to Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young (commonly referred to by their initials CSNY).
