little beach mermaid song

lyrics

I would swim so deep and low
to where the fish and sea grass grows
to where tomorrow isn’t real
under wild written prose.

then i’ll sit and think of you
underneath the ocean blue
i’ll speak in only mermaid tongue
as mermaids brush the hair they grew.

I met a fish that spoke of green
and all the pearly waved he’d seen
It reminded me of things you’d love
and placed you and I have been.

A lot of times I’d hear your sound
on the oceans sandy ground
it made me miss you like a mad man
I knew you would be proud.

after days when I return
on the beach of rocks i’ll yearn
for your arms to be round me
inside my chest I feel it burn.

I’ll call you up using shells
I found amongst the blue bells
to hear your voice after all this time
my heart swells and swells and swells.

against all my fears
it poured out my tiny ears
my poor ribs had all fallen out:
my 24 tiny cavaliers.

When you came you brought blue skies
and a perfect sunrise
you held my heart inside you hands
a lovely beating prize.

You fixed me up and kissed my nose
under where the blossom grows
out of all the fish that live below
you’re the one I chose.
