lyrics

Let’s start from the beginning
For the future’s unforgiving.
Fate dealt me an unexpected hand.
I was tired of living
So I joined in with the rhythm
Of the water as it took me from the sand.

Only to return again in spirit. Only to find death has got its limits.

Others like me roam around
Lookin’ for loves’ lost and found
Preyin’ on the needs of mortal men.
I fear that I am duty bound
To lure them with the tempting sound.
Softly call their names to draw them in.

My heart belongs on land, my soul longs for the sea.
But oh you mortal men I fear that this can never, this can never be.

Daniel is a fisherman,
His skin has been kissed by the sun.
I see him on the water every day.
I’m thinking maybe he’s the one,
For even though I sing my song,
He looks at me in such a human way.

My heart belongs on land, my soul longs for the sea.
But oh you mortal men I fear that this can never, this can never be.

I know that when you look at me
You think of me as wild and free
But nothing could be further from the truth.
I left a life behind me
Hoping it would never find me
And I never really made it past my youth.

My heart belongs on land, my soul longs for the sea.
But oh you mortal men I fear that this can never, this can never be.

We may get seven years or more
Of life and love both rich and poor
Before the song it calls me back to sea.
Then I will pull you through the door,
Bid a farewell to the shore.
Drag you under, bring you home with me.

Only to return again in spirit. Only to find death has got its limits.
