Lyrics

Today I met a mermaid The daughter of the queen Her eyes were brown Her hair was blue Her tail was emerald green She told me she was looking For her palace deep below She was tired and lost And didn't feel like searching all alone Wa, wa, sang the water Ooh, ooh, sang the moon Ah, ah, sighed the starfish With the mermaid who sang Please come with me Will you come with me? I need a friend and I hope that friend is you Will you come with me? She sang, will you come with me I've got my hands out And I'm waiting for you "I'd like to come" I said, "but how?" She whispered, "close your eyes" And when I did, I felt a change Coming from inside The ocean seemed like home to me And suddenly I knew When I looked down I saw a tail I was a mermaid, too! Wa, wa, sang the water Ooh, ooh, sang the moon Ah, ah, sighed the starfish With the mermaid who sang Please come with me Will you come with me? I need a friend and I hope that friend is you Will you come with me? She sang, will you come with me? I've got my hands out And I'm waiting for you I took those hands And we swam down (Down, down, down) And on the ocean floor we found A golden, glittering Mermaid's crown She picked it up and smiled wide Then I saw her palace in the undersea light Covered in coral and crystals so bright It was the most amazing sight Wa, wa, sang the water Ooh, ooh, sang the moon Ah, ah, sighed the starfish With the mermaid who sang You came with me Yes, you came with me I have a new friend and I'm so glad it's you 'Cause you came with me, she sang Yes, you came with me Now hold your hands out I've got something for you In my hands, she placed a pearl And said, "Remember me" I hugged her tight, then waved good-bye And swam back through the sea When I arrived above the waves I saw my tail was gone But I knew I would not forget The mermaid and her song Wa, wa, sang the water Ooh, ooh, sang the moon Ah, ah, sighed the starfish And I was singing too Yes, I came with you Yes, I came with you You are my friend now and I'll remember you
