The Decemberists
Cavalry Captain
[Chorus]
I am the cavalry captain
I am the remedy to your heart
I am the common collective
I am imprinted upon your stars

[Verse 1]
And when you shine, shine your eyes
Looking lost, looking bright
We'll away on the light brigade

[Bridge]
And if only for a second
(Only for a second)
And if only for a time
(Only for a time)
And if only for a second
(Only for a second)
And if only for a time
We'll be alive
We'll be alive

[Chorus]
I am the cavalry captain
I am the remedy to your heart
I am the common collective
I am imprinted upon your stars
[Verse 2]
There is a world, there is a time
Looking calm, looking kind
We'll away at the break of day

[Bridge + Chorus]
And if only for a second
(Only for a second)
And if only for a time
(Only for a time)
And if only for a second
(Only for a second)
And if only for a time
We'll be alive
We'll be alive
I am the cavalry captain
I am the remedy to your heart
I am the common collective
I am imprinted upon your stars
