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!
