Katie Noonan

the Captains

I was down on my luck and you picked me up

I was down on my luck and you cleaned me up

You dropped your plans, put my head in your hands

Yes you laid me down, sat with me for hours

Come here sweet one, lay down here with me and sing me your tale

I need to sit awhile too and feel your smile and share my day

I'm trying hard to stand, stand here today, stand when my ground feels weak

A great joy has set a cloud and I feel I'm stuck here underneath

Suspicion lies thick as I swim through uncomfortable again

Fear exhausts your breath, just one away from despair

You're looking out and the mirror seems blank again

Up and down, up and down, up and down this ride weighs me down

I'm looking for you, I've nothing to lose
