Oh captain, my captain
I bid you farewell
The events taken place
No one would ever foretell
Oh captain, my captain
Forgive my mistakes
You gave me my dreams
But he tore them away
Oh captain, my captain
You made me believe
That anything's possible
That I could succeed
Oh captain, my captain
You're never to blame
You fed me my life
I put it out like a flame
Oh captain, my captain
Give my regret to my friends
Forever I'll love them
Don't let them follow my trend
Oh captain, my captain
Carpe diem, you said
I've nothing to live for
And thus I am dead
I bid you farewell
The events taken place
No one would ever foretell
Oh captain, my captain
Forgive my mistakes
You gave me my dreams
But he tore them away
Oh captain, my captain
You made me believe
That anything's possible
That I could succeed
Oh captain, my captain
You're never to blame
You fed me my life
I put it out like a flame
Oh captain, my captain
Give my regret to my friends
Forever I'll love them
Don't let them follow my trend
Oh captain, my captain
Carpe diem, you said
I've nothing to live for
And thus I am dead
