AMORPHIS
- Mermaid Lyrics / with translationsOn the blue waters of mermaids
I was sailing on the blue
Brought up a catch of strangest wonder
On the blue
And I drew my knife to gut
What I had taken from the blue
But it was gone, back to the lake
And vanished into the blue
The waters, they parted
As she rose to shine
She was my maid, my wife-to-be
Returned to me this one time
I did not know her, I made her flee
Flee from me
Beneath the waves and marbled rocks
Watery canyon of blackest depths
My hope was sunk
My dream taken away
Woe to you, she said to me
As she broke cover of the blue
Don't you know me?
I couldn't be yours after all
I never knew
The waters, they parted
As she rose to shine
She was my maid, my wife-to-be
Returned to me this one time
I did not know her, I made her flee
Flee from me
Beneath the waves and marbled rocks
Watery canyon of blackest depths
My hope was sunk
My dream taken away
I was sailing on the blue
Brought up a catch of strangest wonder
On the blue
And I drew my knife to gut
What I had taken from the blue
But it was gone, back to the lake
And vanished into the blue
The waters, they parted
As she rose to shine
She was my maid, my wife-to-be
Returned to me this one time
I did not know her, I made her flee
Flee from me
Beneath the waves and marbled rocks
Watery canyon of blackest depths
My dream taken away
Woe to you, she said to me
As she broke cover of the blue
Don't you know me?
I couldn't be yours after all
I never knew
The waters, they parted
As she rose to shine
She was my maid, my wife-to-be
Returned to me this one time
I did not know her, I made her flee
Flee from me
Beneath the waves and marbled rocks
Watery canyon of blackest depths
My hope was sunk
My dream taken away
