Children Within - Mermaid Lyrics
I breathe the same air as you doThough my lungs drown in waterYou will surviveWhen like a fish, you diveYou we're born to a lifeOn a sunken islandA once so proud countrysideIs silentThey don't believe meWe've got saltwater in our eyesTo prove our true natureWith a thirst too hard to slakeIt's not enough with the deepest wellI breathe the same air as you doThough my lungs drown in waterYou will surviveWhen like a fish, you diveI have the same need as you haveNeed an endless horizonTo keep the moodAnd save me from the prudeI'm a sailor on a shipThat's always sinkingFrom time to timeYou've got me thinkingThat I should be the first mateNow I'm floating next to youHoping for a quick rescueAnd I'm happy with myselfI feel relaxed and it's getting lateI breathe the same air as you doThough my lungs drown in waterYou will surviveWhen like a fish, you diveI have the same need as you haveNeed an endless horizonTo keep the moodAnd save me from the prude
