about

It was inevitable.

lyrics

So I heard the siren music in the blackness of the night
I followed it to find a mermaid trembling with fright
I plucked her from the shore and tried to make her breathe the air
And I ignored the voice that tried to warn me to take care

There were times when we would sit and talk until the end of night
Laughter rang out through the air to measure our delight
She even introduced me to another from her school
Time with them was better than the final day of school

Nature has a way of showing up the pride of man
The animal takes over when he’s done the best he can
It was a hard learned lesson but I finally understand
Mermaids congregate deep in the sea, not on the land

I sing this song to them from somewhere far above the waves
I sing it with the air they cannot breath beneath the waves
I sing it bathed in sunlight, then in moonlight clean and clear
I sing it to the ocean dwellers who will never hear

We are nowhere in their hearts as they look within themselves
We are nowhere in their eyes as they look toward the sea
We are nowhere in their arms as they turn away from us
We are nowhere in their thoughts as they turn beneath the waves

We travel not beneath the waves
The waves
The waves I am watching
