Mermaid Lyrics

I would be a mermaid fair
I would comb my golden curls
With a comb of shiny pearl
My ringlets would fall down
From beneath my sea-bud crown
I would look like a fountain of gold
And all the mermen in the sea
Would feel their immortality
Die in their hearts for the love of me
But at night I'd slip away
Fling aside my flowing locks
Join the mermen on the rocks
Run 'cross the crimson shells
From the diamond dells
I would leap like a silvery wave

And all the mermen in the sea
Would feel their immortality
Die in their hearts for the love of me
I would be a mermaid grand
I would not give up my hand
To the mermen on the sand
But, King of all, come carry me
Woo me, win me, marry me
In the twilights under the sea
