Tail of the Sea: Chapter 2

As the maiden sinks down and down

As the maiden sinks down and down A few more seconds, and she will drown

As the maiden sinks down and down A few more seconds, and she will drown What a coincidence, for at this instant

As the maiden sinks down and down A few more seconds, and she will drown What a coincidence, for at this instant The prince is there, coexistent

As he watches the beautiful maiden fall

As he watches the beautiful maiden fall His father's rules he can't recall

As he watches the beautiful maiden fall His father's rules he can't recall He swims over and quickly saves

As he watches the beautiful maiden fall His father's rules he can't recall He swims over and quickly saves The maiden who fell beneath the waves

The prince brings her over to the sands

The prince brings her over to the sands And crawls up upon the human lands

The prince brings her over to the sands And crawls up upon the human lands Quietly he sings his sorrowful songs

The prince brings her over to the sands And crawls up upon the human lands Quietly he sings his sorrowful songs And goes back to the water where he belongs

The witch watches with spiteful delight

The witch watches with spiteful delight As the maiden blinks in the incoming light

The witch watches with spiteful delight As the maiden blinks in the incoming light The maiden knows not of the prince appearing

The witch watches with spiteful delight As the maiden blinks in the incoming light The maiden knows not of the prince appearing Only the voice she remembers hearing

The prince swims back to his palace home

The prince swims back to his palace home Coated with seashells and draped with foam

The prince swims back to his palace home Coated with seashells and draped with foam His father would never approve, he thought

The prince swims back to his palace home Coated with seashells and draped with foam His father would never approve, he thought So him leaving was not for naught

How he hates his responsibilities

How he hates his responsibilities No point dwelling on impossibilities

How he hates his responsibilities No point dwelling on impossibilities Or on the maiden he's forbidden to see

How he hates his responsibilities No point dwelling on impossibilities Or on the maiden he's forbidden to see How he just wishes to be free

Stay tuned for Chapter 3!
