Mermaid

As I was walking out on the beach
A pretty song came to my ears
Among the waves, stressed out on a rock
A mermaid beckoned me near
Those waves couldn't hold me back
I swam out and that was that
Then she grabbed a hold of my hand
She said "Come on, hold your breath"
And I'll take you down to the depths
Of my underwater land
And I just met a mermaid
And she took me down, down, down
I just met a mermaid
And she took me down, down, down in the sea
In the sea, she sang to me "La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la"
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
She sang to me "La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la"
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
Well, bright yellow coral and baby blue shells
Shone in her eyes as we kiss
Ivory towers and long flowing hair
I can taste the salty sea on her lips
I don't need oxygen
I'm never gonna get the benz
Long as she's by my side
Whoa, I'm never gonna drown
With all of this water around
I can hold my breath for a long time
And I just met a mermaid
And she took me down, down, down
I just met a mermaid
And she took me down, down, down in the sea
In the sea, she sang to me "La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la"
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
She sang to me "La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la"
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
And I said "Yo!" To the blowfish
I said "Yo!" To the porpoise
I said "Yo!" To the beluga whale
And I said "Yo!" To the starfish
I said "Yo!" To the dolphins
And they smiled cause I was getting some tail
(Tail, tail)
Yeah, I just met a mermaid
And she took me down, down, down
I just met a mermaid
And she took me down, down, down in the sea
In the sea, she sang to me "La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la"
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
She sang to me "La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la"
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
