The lady of the river her eyes were green her hair was blue and her skin aquamarine She was wearing pearls and silver on her hands I think she was a mermaid but she could dance. She was a queen and she let her hair float around her shoulders and around my boat Her streamline body sparkling bright whe she moved along the waves in the pale moonlight One day at noon she was singing a song when the lord of the ocean came along He looked like her except that he was male with his watery shine and his fishy tail. And that's the way it is meant to be He fell in love with her and he took her to the sea Never again I have seen them here When the moon would dance on waves I felt she's near Lady of the river dance with me Lady of the river cold and sweet |
