LA FEMME DE LA MER

Daughter of the beautiful ocean
I feel your wave arrive on my shore 
Bearing gifts of tangled emotion 
And feelings that I cannot ignore

Daughter of the beautiful ocean 
Knowing all when all is unknown
Shifting line between dream and illusion 
Like a wave dissolving the stone

Do I fear you?
Do I willingly drown?
If I love you will your wave hold me down?
Daughter of the beautiful ocean 
Water so seductively cruel
You have come like a siren
A spiral
A storm
And I dived like a fool

Wash me, wet me
Tangle me in the foam 
Wound me, heal me
Strip me back to the bone
           
La femme de la mer 
Tu es la femme
La femme de la mer
