The Mermaid

Without you, the ground thaws

The rain falls, the grass grows

Without you, the seeds root

The flowers bloom

The children play, the stars gleam

The poets dream, the eagles fly

Without you, the earth turns

The sun burns but I die

Without you, without you

The breeze warms, the girl smiles

The cloud moves without you

The tides change, the boys run

The oceans crash, the crowds roar

The days soar, the babies cry

Without you, the moon glows

The river flows but I die

Without you, the world revives

Colors renew but I know blue

Only blue, lonely blue

Within in me, blue, without you

Without you, the hand gropes

The ear hears, the pulse beats

Without you, the eyes gaze

The legs walk, the lungs breathe

The mind churns (the mind churns)

The heart yearns (the heart yearns)

The tears dry without you

Life goes on but I'm gone

'Cause I die, without you

Without you, without you

Without you
