xtc - mermaid smiled lyrics

Loading...

from pools of xylophone clear
from caves of memory
i saw the children at heart
that we once used to be

borne on foaming seahorse herd

compose with trumpeting sh-ll
from lines across their hands
a song as new as new moon
as old as all the sands

shrank to stagnant from atlantic wild
lost that child ’til mermaid smiled

summoned by drum rolling surf
as laughing fish compel
the young boy woken in me
by clanging diving bell

breakers pillow fight the sh-r-

she wriggles free in the tide
i’m locked in adult land
back in the mirror she slides
waving with comb in hand

i was lucky to remain beguiled
grown to child since mermaid smiled

- xtc lyrics
