Gretchen My Captain

As Fast As

Compositor: Spencer Albee

Frost on the port hole
it doesn't look so angry after all
we're low on water
it was a one-way mission after all

Gretchen my captain
so strong I never noticed your blue eyes
never look hungry
I guess I shouldn't have been so surprised

[chorus:]
what would your mother say to that
if she found out about your friends
what would your father think
if he knew you and I have before and will again

I find it painful
to see your face and finally know that I
don't have what you need
I never will, not even up so high

six months till we die
you love me
yes I know
and so do I

red rock, like concrete
can swing into my side and change your mind
you know it can but

[chorus]
