Love Boat Captain

Pearl Jam · New York Ny: July 8th 2003 [2003]

Is this just another day? This God forgotten place?

First comes love, then comes pain, let the games begin

Questions rise and answers fall, insurmountable



Love boat captain

Take the reins and steer us towards the clear, here

It's already been sung, but it can't be said enough

All you need is love



Is this just another phase? Earthquakes making waves

Trying to shake the cancer off, stupid human beings

Once you hold the hand of love, it's all surmountable



Hold me, and make it the truth

That when all is lost there will be you

Cause to the universe I don't mean a thing

And there's just one word I still believe

And it's love.



It's an art to live with pain, mix the light into gray

Lost nine friends we'll never know, two years ago today

And if our lives became too long, would it add to our regret?



And the young, they can lose hope cause they can't see beyond today

The wisdom that the old can't give away hey

Constant recall

Sometimes life don't leave you alone



Hold me, and make it the truth

That when all is lost there will be you

Cause to the universe I don't mean a thing

And there's just one word that I still believe

And it's love, love, love, love, love



love boat captain

take the reins, steer us towards the clear

I know it's already been sung, can't be said enough

Love is all you need, all you need is love

Love, love, love.
