Mermaid

lyrics

mermaid

today i am a mermaid and you are a desert prince
you're riding through your sand hills searching for somebody
since
the day you told your last companion that her ways would be too strange
now you've changed your mind but she keeps telling you
it's too late to change

i am floating through my little world under the sea
the sandwaves on the ground still look so beautiful to me
fishes dance around me and i'm glad they are with me
but they can't wipe out the loneliness i feel since i am free

maybe in a week or two
i'm standing on your shore
just to leave the silence i can't live with anymore
maybe in a week or two
you'll step into the sea
hoping i could be the one to set your spirit free

I’ll set you free

today i am a mermaid and you are a desert prince
and we both feel a kind of longing that has sprung up with the wind
that strokes your hair and takes a grain of desert sand to me
and makes us feel how cool and empty solitude can be
and makes us feel how beautiful
beautiful love could be

maybe in a week or two...
