Turn Loose The Mermaids
A kite above a graveyard grey
At the end of the line, far, far away
A child holding on to the magic of birth and awe
Oh, how beautiful it used to be
Just you and me far beyond the sea
The waters scarce in motion quivering still
At the end of the river, the sundown beams
All the relics of a life long lived
Here, weary traveller, rest your wand
Sleep the journey from your eyes
Good journey, love, time to go
I checked your teeth and warmed your toes
In the horizon, I see them coming for you
The mermaid grace, the forever call
Beauty in spyglass on an old man's porch
The mermaids you turned loose brought back your tears
At the end of the river, the sundown beams
All the relics of a life long lived
Here, weary traveler, rest your wand
Sleep the journey from your eyes
At the end of the river, the sundown beams
All the relics of a life long lived
Here, weary traveler, rest your wand
Sleep the journey from your eyes
At the end of the river, the sundown beams
All the relics of a life long lived
Here, weary traveler, rest your wand
Sleep the journey from your eyes
At the end of the river, the sundown beams (oh)
All the relics of a life long lived
Here, weary traveler, rest your wand
Sleep the journey from your eyes
At the end of the line, far, far away
A child holding on to the magic of birth and awe
Oh, how beautiful it used to be
Just you and me far beyond the sea
The waters scarce in motion quivering still
At the end of the river, the sundown beams
All the relics of a life long lived
Here, weary traveller, rest your wand
Sleep the journey from your eyes
Good journey, love, time to go
I checked your teeth and warmed your toes
In the horizon, I see them coming for you
The mermaid grace, the forever call
Beauty in spyglass on an old man's porch
The mermaids you turned loose brought back your tears
At the end of the river, the sundown beams
All the relics of a life long lived
Here, weary traveler, rest your wand
Sleep the journey from your eyes
At the end of the river, the sundown beams
All the relics of a life long lived
Here, weary traveler, rest your wand
Sleep the journey from your eyes
At the end of the river, the sundown beams
All the relics of a life long lived
Here, weary traveler, rest your wand
Sleep the journey from your eyes
At the end of the river, the sundown beams (oh)
All the relics of a life long lived
Here, weary traveler, rest your wand
Sleep the journey from your eyes
