I was lost until you found me
You´re the reason for my today
Was tempest tossed, now I sleep soundly
Thanks to you I gladly say

That if your goldmine comes up empty
I´ll be there to work the claim
If you´re a captain of a shipwreck
I´ll be first mate to your shame

Trust in me to share your burden
Stand by you where I belong
When life brings the day uncertain
I will soothe you with my song

And if your goldmine comes up empty
I´ll be there to work the claim
If you´re a captain of a shipwreck
I´ll be first mate to your shame

Fear no flood in stormy weather
Fear no fire if winds arise
Flesh and blood, I´m yours forever
And forever, it never dies

And if your goldmine comes up empty
I´ll be there to work the claim
If you´re a captain of a shipwreck
I´ll be first mate to your shame

If you´re a captain of a shipwreck
You can find me up on the top deck
You´ll be captain of a shipwreck
I´ll be first mate to your shame.
