Mermaid Blues Lyrics

Ice has formed and there's snow between the tracks
And I have seen the surface tear and I can't look back
And cool low sun has blinded you for days
From horizon to horizon can I dream
This all away?

But over the water over the sea
There's you shining bright in a sea of fools
Oh, I can sing you out of this
Can shake your mermaids blues
Come with me for alone I fear the tide
It's calling me and dragging me and I think it's time But over the water over the water over the sea

Shape your mouth to fit these words of war
I see the arrows falling backwards burning for a cause
I'll swim with you until my lungs give out
Oh, I can raise you from the deep or drown with you in doubt

But over the water, over the water, over the water with you
With you, with you
