Boy when out on a boat tonight
|
Waiting on his lover
|
Seen his mermaid bride in the moonlight
|
And the arms of another
|
She said "standing on the water is easier to do
|
Then to try and be a family living here with you
|
And the more I've been thinking
|
The more I know I'm living alone
|
|
Now they see him out on the waterways
|
Rolling on the foam
|
Only memory for a future
|
Only ocean for a home
|
'Cause Amelia's the name that she calls herself these days
|
And "birds! birds!" is all we heard before she flew away
|
And the more I've been thinking
|
The more I know I'm living alone
|
