lyrics

Waiting for the tide
Won’t help you
I won’t change my mind
It’s set and done
I’ve seen it in your eyes
Those eyes that hunt me

She tells me to leave it all behind
Tell me to change my name
Move away while there’s time

Deep deep she lives
Finds a way to the heart
Light light she speaks
And her words touch you

She’s a mermaid of a new kind
Hides inside tells me to be quiet
She sings for you
Till you think you know me well
(Now you think you know me well,…)

Deep deep she lives
Finds a way to the heart
Light light she speaks
And her words touch you

She tell me to be quiet, then she tells me to roar
She tells me how to survive, and she tells me when to go
She calls my inner core and she tells me alone

She tells me to roar
She tells me to roar
She tells me to roar
She tells me to roar
