Mermaid lyrics

I breathe the same air as you do
Though my lungs drown in water
You will survive
When like a fish, you dive

You we`re born to a life
On a sunken island
A once so proud countryside
Is silent
They don`t believe me
We`ve got saltwater in our eyes
To prove our true nature
With a thirst too hard to slake
It`s not enough with the deepest well

I breathe the same air as you do
Though my lungs drown in water
You will survive
When like a fish, you dive

I have the same need as you have
Need an endless horizon
To keep the mood
And save me from the prude

I`m a sailor on a ship
That`s always sinking
From time to time
You`ve got me thinking
That I should be the first mate
Now I`m floating next to you
Hoping for a quick rescue
And I`m happy with myself
I feel relaxed and it`s getting late

I breathe the same air as you do
Though my lungs drown in water
You will survive
When like a fish, you dive

I have the same need as you have
Need an endless horizon
To keep the mood
And save me from the prude
