She winked at him, 
He winked at her
For sure, 
the next day on the phone 
they started walking 
towards the better, together
To Texas from New York 
back and forth 
Neasie and Captain found their north  
A wedding in Borger
Sent them onward towards forever  
 
He’ll always be the Captain 
Of her heart 
But the hardest part 
Is letting go
Even though she knows   
Those were the best years of her life
Aint it bittersweet 
To find the one 
makes you complete
Is a memory
But he’ll always be
The Captain
   
Parties for two on the patio
Cross country trips
And days on the boat 
Fixing up houses 
And watching their family grow
And writing love notes
Holding hands to fall asleep
They’d make plans 
that weren’t meant to be
Love aint a mystery
Its what you do 
when you find the right one

A song for Denice

All The Same To Me-Live at Jackalope Brewing. Nashville

Well you can tear a man down
and never walk in his shoes
You can stand and pledge allegiance
while the world sings the blues
but you can't put a crown on a clown

You can feather that nest
without a book on one shelf
You can plead for respect
and never give it yourself
but you can't put a crown on a clown

No you can't put a crown on a clown
And call him a king
You can't tell me I should bow down 
It don't mean a thing
So go on and believe 
what you want to believe
You can fool half the fools 
but you can't fool me
and you can't put a crown on a clown  

Yeah, you can fool half the fools
about half of the time
They've made you their king
But you'll never be mine
"cuz you can't put a crown on a clown

The Captain
