Mermaid

Whoa

Whoa

Can't swim so I took a boat to an island so remote

Only Johnny Depp has ever been to it before

I stayed there 'til the air was clear

I was bored and out of tears

Then I saw you washed up on the shore

I offered you my coat

Thank goddess, luck can flow

Crazy how that shipwreck met my ship was comin' in

We talked 'til the sun went down

Love on the Pugit Sound

My treasure map was on your skin

Beauty in the water, angel on the beach

Ocean's daughter, I thought love was out of reach

'Til I got her, had I known it could come true

I would have wished in '92, for a mermaid just like you

Whoa, just like you, whoa

Sharks green with envy, they wonder what you see in me

Funny thoughts sometimes can't help but wonder that as well

Now life is a holiday, making up for the years I paid

The weight to this heavenly bay, it went through hell

Beauty in the water, angel on the beach

Ocean's daughter, I thought love was out of reach

'Til I got her, had I known it could come true

I would have wished in '92, for a mermaid just like you

Whoa, just like you, whoa

Rescued you by the Banu tree

All the girlfish in the sea

Puttin' in a candle to you

They don't have a handle on you

They don't have a scandal on you

Holler back will save you

Saving me was B-I-G

All the boy fish in the sea

They all wish that they could be me

Can't swim so I took a boat to an island so remote

Only Johnny Depp has ever been to it before

Beauty in the water, angel on the beach

Ocean's daughter, I thought love was out of reach

'Til I got her, had I known it could come true

I would have wished in '92, for a mermaid just like you

Whoa, just like you, whoa

Just like you, whoa (rescued you by the Banu tree)

(All the girlfish in the sea) whoa

Just like you, whoa
