11.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
