O’captain my captain the kids were saying
To this old man who seemed to be playing
But playing he was not, for he was teaching
A lesson of lessons that must be known
...

Nothing can really express the way i feel except for the word thanks.
Thanks for becomeing my friend.
Thanks for my 17th birthday present.
Thanks for being there when i'm down.
...

To my unkown i meet the one.
Talking by note to take a stand.
Till the day where i come up
And take her by the hand.
...

The time was “then” this I recall
Just the two of us and no more at all
Just us on the water that sparkled and shimmered
While tapping evenly with a rhythmic rhythm
...

¿Te gustaria un beso? Is what I said
This question I asked bounced around in her head
Tugging and bugging at what the meaning could be
Laughing I was as she did this to me
...

love go to my heart straight
beat beat
alive and more alive
oh time before words
...

I carry it around but no one will see
Because around my neck is where it should be
It’s a symbol to that which I commit
And that is what I will admit
...
