Mermaid

Contributed by Alexa_Bachtel on Wednesday, 10th March 2010 @ 10:57:16 AM in AEST
Topic: LovePoetry

I was hidin' between the green leaves,
Timidly and so carefully just like Bamby,
So the only green eyes gave out my presence,
Cos they were lookin' at you
With such curiosity,
The wanted to find out who you were
And where you came from,
And why I haven't seen you here before.
I've fallen for you
Before I was able to understand my heart,
Even-though I knew I'd never be
With the man like that.

I never meant to say I love you,
Because I knew, that I'd betray what I believe in,
As the mermaid once had fallen for the prince
Havin' turn her body into the sea foam after all.
I never meant to say I love you,
Cos it'd mean I was lyin' to myself all this time,
Convincin' myself I knew what the life feels like,
Though I hadn't known the real life without you.

Beyond the good and evil,
The wrong and right,
I'm learnin' how to live
With baby steps I'm takin'
And my life begins
To feel sweet and amazin'
As I revealed myself again
After the long disguise,
I'm not afraid no more to play by ears,
I'm not,
And the light inside my eyes
Ain't just the reflexion of the sun,
It's somethin' new, the feeling
I ain't known before.
So now I wanna find
What's lies beneath the love.

I never meant to say I love you,
Because I knew, that I'd betray what I believe in,
As the mermaid once had fallen for the prince
Havin' turn her body into the sea foam after all.
I never meant to say I love you,
Cos it'd mean I was lyin' to myself all this time,
Convincin' myself I knew what the life feels like,
Though I hadn't known the real life without you.

You're callin' out my name
And I'm comin' without the fear,
Unaware what's waitin' for me up there,
Inside your arms, baby.
Whether it'll be a deception
I can't see because I'm blind
Or it'll be a flower in your hand picked.
Cos my guardian angel has resigned,
So I am bruise easily, oh I am,
I wanna know ya, baby,
But I'm afraid you can hurt me,
But no matter what, I'm marchin' on,
Bravely, so recklessly,
In-spite that I've never meant to say
I love you.

I never meant to say I love you,
Because I knew, that I'd betray what I believe in,
As the mermaid once had fallen for the prince
Havin' turn her body into the sea foam after all.
I never meant to say I love you,
Cos it'd mean I was lyin' to myself all this time,
Convincin' myself I knew what the life feels like,
Though I hadn't known the real life without you.
