Mermaid lyrics

On the blue waters of mermaids

I was sailing

on the blue

Brought up a catch of strangest wonder

on the blue

And I drew my knife to gut what I had taken

from the blue

but it was gone, back to the lake

And vanished into the blue

The waters, they parted

As she rose to shine

She was my maid, my wife-to-be

Returned to me this one time

I did not know her,

I made her flee

flee from me

Beneath the waves

and marbled rocks

watery canyon

of blackest depths

my hope was sunk

my dream taken away

taken away

Woe to you,

she said to me as she broke cover

of the blue

Don't you know me?

I couldn't be yours after all

I never knew

The waters, they parted

As she rose to shine

She was my maid, my wife-to-be

Returned to me this one time

I did not know her,

I made her flee

flee from me

Beneath the waves

and marbled rocks

watery canyon

of blackest depths

my hope was sunk

my dream taken away

taken away
