Give me your hand

And I'll take you down

Oh can't you see that

I'm dyin' to drown

And don't hold your breath my dear

Oh don't hold your breath my dear

And our love it is true

So there's not much to do

As the air in our lungs

Starts to hiss

And the ocean it rolls

And the depths take their toll

When we get to the bottom

We'll kiss

And the crush of the deep

Our secrets'll keep

And the mermaids they drift

In the dark

With the salt all ablaze

And the ships where they lay

There must be great fear

In a spark

So here we will stay

All the demons at bay

From our arms and our eyes

It seems

Away from the dirt

Beneath the skirt

Of the sea

We won't wake from our dreams
