Mermaid      Remember how you found me   Under a low bent half moon   I must have been singing for you   I'd never left the water   Though I once knew some flying fish   Thought I'd forget how to swim   I am your mermaid    I give to you freely   But soon as you see me I'm gone, gone   I am your mermaid   Tangled but blissful   Knock me a kissful of nectar, honey   The water is hot   And you hold my head   As sores of the day slip through the shore's threads   I'd never felt such rapture   A glimpse at the lighthouse   Undo myself from your hanging mouth   I am your mermaid   Tangled but blissful   Knock me a kissful of nectar, honey   I am your mermaid   I opened your mortal need   You planted your opal seed of love, love   I am your mermaid   I am your mermaid   I am your mermaid
