The moon shone bright
Floating upon the waves
She dreamt of a kingdom there
Of silver nights and golden days
She was the queen of the sea
A sailors dream come true
And on that windy summer night
She fell in love with the moon
Darkness became her home
Stars were dear friends
Endlessly she'd talk to her lover
Till the sun brought the hours to an end
And as the ocean swallowed the sun
Like every other night
She waited for her lover
But couldn't find the silver light
So she sailed across the sea
To the city of lights
Oh what a different world this was
With no stars to bejewel the night
Behind the hopeless clouds
Lies her lover, her soul
Waiting for a gust of love
The mermaid dances each night alone...
