Sail On Captain

Verse 1

From a Yorkshire mill town boy

You learned to stand and never fall

Stratford stages taught you voice

Then the stars came when you called

Pre-Chorus

You wore the chair like a second skin

You made a bald man brave

You made the galaxy begin

Chorus

So long Captain

Sail on home

So long Captain

You were never alone

We'll keep the light on

Keep the light on

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh, sail on

Oh-oh, sail on

Verse 2

Xavier's school and Shakespeare's tongue

Logan's friend and Picard's son

Years of work and years of grace

A quiet strength upon your face

Pre-Chorus

You wore the chair like a second skin

You made a bald man brave

You made the galaxy begin

Chorus

So long Captain

Sail on home

So long Captain

You were never alone

We'll keep the light on

Keep the light on

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh, sail on

Oh-oh, sail on

Bridge

No more orders no more war

Just the ones you loved before

Rest your hands rest your mind

Leave the bridge for us behind

Chorus

So long Captain

Sail on home

So long Captain

You were never alone

We'll keep the light on

Keep the light on

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh, sail on

Oh-oh, sail on
