A Mermaid’s Song

To sail the seas
To call my name
Is not enough
To bring me down

I saw an underwater world
With stones from ancient times

A shipwreck with an anchor of gold
Sunken like a soul, that is not mine

To sail the seas
To call my name
Is not enough
To bring me down

Your telling silence (and)
Your wavering mind
Have built a cloud
It stands between us …

And a mermaid’s song…

I heard about a sailor who
Reached this haven long ago

His soul carried a heavy load
A Princess crowed over his oath

She told him lies, kept him in line
A ghost light nebulized his mind

Flattered he felt, but fatal (was) the loss
The haven drowned and something died

To sail the seas
To call my name
Is not enough
To bring me down

Your telling silence (and)
Your wavering mind
Have built a cloud
It stands between us …

And a mermaid’s song

Rueful he was
It was too late
The fraud evoked
An earthquake

A chasm yawned
The augured love
Fell behind the sun
And the mermaid’s song
Run dry…

To sail the seas
To call my name
Is not enough
To bring me down

To sail the seas
To call my name
Is not enough
To bring me down

Your telling silence (and)
Your wavering mind
Have built a cloud
It stands between us …

And a mermaid’s song
