The Mermaid and the Pirate

[Verse] In the fjord's cold embrace Where the moon shyly hides Swam a mermaid of purple With shadows in her tides She sang with the seabirds Her voice haunting as sea Carving tales in the waves Of a love yet to be [Verse 2] A green-hearted pirate Fierce lady of sails With emerald eyes blazing She'd slay all the gales Her heart buried deep beneath mountains of gold Her soul drifted lonely Through stories untold [Chorus] Oh The mermaid and pirate Their destinies twined In twilight’s soft whisper Their hearts now aligned Through oceans and tempests In love's daring dance In legends and ballads They found sweet romance [Bridge] On a night without stars When the sky wore a shroud The pirate met mermaid Beneath the surf loud With whispers of seashells Their secrets laid bare Hands like seaweed entwined In the cool twilight air [Verse 3] They pledged by the moonlight Where the norse rivers flow With fish scales and trinkets Love would only grow Her green and her purple A canvas so bright Painting dreams in the dawn Setting hearts alight [Chorus] Oh The mermaid and pirate Their destinies twined In twilight’s soft whisper Their hearts now aligned Through oceans and tempests In love's daring dance In legends and ballads They found sweet romance
