"The Mermaid" Sereia Do Mar

I was at sea And on my own, sailing so free I was alone, lost in my thoughts And melodies, suddenly thrown And helplessly blown Windy the storm So quick it came, wild and warm I felt the rain as I was swept Across the waves, I saw a face Such beautiful grace Stories of old And sailor's songs often have told Lovely ladies who dwell the sea They sing of love as sweet as can be But never speak They love men who sail the sea In their hearts, they know love never can be Adrift and afraid What hope I had beginning to fade And looking bad, then I was saved A miracle as a mermaid, sang her serenade All through the night Until the dawn she held me tight The clouds had gone, she led the way We headed home, tears in her eyes We said our goodbyes Sailing the sea Sailing so free They know love never can be After this night
