The Man on the Island
The man on the island
He looks after the sea
And the sea looks after him
The man on the island
Has children in the waves
In the waves they play with him
At the bottom of the sea
Is his wife the mermaid
She rises with the moon
And sings of words once said
The man on the island laughs and cries
Dries his tears in the foam of her hair
The man on the island
He whispers to the sea
And the sea whispers to him
The children in the waves
The flowers on the land
And the sand are part of him
At the bottom of the sea
With his wife the mermaid
The man from the island
In his coral castle
Is king of the water and poor man on the land
He looks after the seas the man on the island
He looks after the sea
And the sea looks after him
The man on the island
Has children in the waves
In the waves they play with him
At the bottom of the sea
Is his wife the mermaid
She rises with the moon
And sings of words once said
The man on the island laughs and cries
Dries his tears in the foam of her hair
The man on the island
He whispers to the sea
And the sea whispers to him
The children in the waves
The flowers on the land
And the sand are part of him
At the bottom of the sea
With his wife the mermaid
The man from the island
In his coral castle
Is king of the water and poor man on the land
He looks after the seas the man on the island
