I'm trying to learn
I'm trying to learn
To learn to love my conqueror
O conqueror, if I'm your sufferer
I'll break every lock on every door
And run like a thief, like a thief into the night
I crave the golden sunlight
Where I can sing, I can sing out loud
My voice is coarse but very proud

"Hey, it's too late"
I cried out in vain
Who knew it'd be the last time I saw your face, saw your face?
But hey, all this way, I'm not afraid
You will be the last one to walk in chains
You've suffered enough, my lonely one

I'm trying to learn
I'm trying to learn
To learn to love my captain
O captain, if I'm your sufferer
I'll say "Selah" at every door

"Hey, it's too late"
I cried out in vain
Who knew it'd be the last time I saw your face, saw your face?
But hey, all this way, I'm not afraid
You will be the last one to walk in chains
You've suffered enough, my lonely one
