Shaye - No Mermaid Lyrics
We went down to the edge of the waterYou were afraid to go inYou said there might be sharks out there in the oceanAnd I said I'm only going for a swimI was swimming around in a circleI wasn't always in viewYou said we might get into red flag dangerAnd I am alone when I'm not with youI am no mermaid, I am no mermaidAnd I am no fisherman's slaveI am no mermaid, I am no mermaidI keep my head above the wavesI was swinging from the centre of the ceilingYou were afraid to give inI said I know I'll always live for this feelingAnd you closed your eyes and said never againI was dancing in the middle of the desertYou said we'd burn under the hot sunI said I'd rather be the colour of pleasureThan watch like you from under the thumbI am no mermaid, I am no mermaidAnd I am no fisherman's slaveI am no mermaid, I am no mermaidI keep my head above the waves
