I have left the seed of life 
From South Hampton to Singapore 
And if tomorrow morning comes 
I guess I'll leave some more. 

I'm a captain without an ocean 
And a lover without emotion 
And a monk free of devotion 
But I am, most of all, I am. 

I have worn the country's colors 
In a thousand different ways 
I have won the game of life 
Upon the table which it plays.

I'm a sun without a setting 
And a tear without regretting 
I'm a mind full of forgetting 
But I am, most of all, I am. 

Forgive me while I kiss away 
This thought that's in my head 
But it's the only proof I have 
That this old man ain't dead.

I'm a robin without its wings 
And a song nobody sings 
To the ivy no one clings 
But I am, most of all, I am. 

Yes I am, most of all, I am.
