Where does a man stand
when he has no place hide.

Inside or out
he's still doing time.

A face in the wind
with a cool ocean breeze
full sails ahead
can you see her out at sea.

From harbor to harbor
and sea to sea
he keeps looking for her
his lady of the sea.

Moon light and stars
a trick of the mind
he See's her swimming in the ocean
but he knows
he's still doing time.

Can you smell her perfume
carried in the ocean breeze.

Like mermaids and rainbows
and the wet ocean air
he See's her
she looks as if no one is there
to see her through the wet ocean air.

Where does a man stand
when he stands alone
with no one to touch
and no place to call home.

He See's her
she's a vision of life love and pain
with an eye on the ocean
and the other in a dream.

He See's her he reaches
for a chance to breath her perfume
in the cool ocean air.

She holds her hand out to show him the way
to her home in the ocean
down under the waves.

He will stand alone not another day
like mermaids and rainbows
she's shown him the way.

She's a vision of life love and pain
with an eye on the ocean
and the other in a dream.

    when i was 8ish, every time i would dive into a wave thinking that this will be the time that the sea takes me
    not necessarily a mermaid
    but wave after wave after wave
    this will be the one that will carry me home
    to live IN the sea where i obviously belong

    goddamn this took me there

    i should be swimming with dolphins and tuna and mermaids
    all the time

    fucking love it gf
    fuck 'em if they can't take a joke

    "what a long, strange trip it's been"
