When standing on the shore, mermaids sing undersea
The deep blue pearls, impressions settle in the sand
I find that love’s just lust with a melody
My hair twirls where the water and wind disagree
Sweet warm air spills against my awakened body
When standing on the shore, mermaids sing undersea
A harp lures us, come dance under the tree!
We waltz. We tango. We stop counting steps
I find that love’s just lust with a melody
No time to come up for air, indulgent and free
Waste the day away intertwined in the reefs
When standing on the shore, mermaids sing undersea
A major chord, a minor lift, and jubilee
We sing. We tumble. We become attached
I find that love’s just lust with a melody
We laugh. We float. We fall in love, you and me.
The elements chime, and oceanic waters break
When standing on the shore, mermaids sing undersea
I find that love’s just lust with a melody
