Текст песни: When I was a Mermaid + перевод

When I was a mermaid, my daughter, my dear

And a long time before I had you

I lived in the ocean a long way from here

And sometimes my stories are true

I sang with the same voice, my cherub, my child

That sings in the night-time to you

Though my eyes were more green, and my hair was more wild

And sometimes my stories are true

The sky was so bright then, my honey, my heart

The ocean so deep and so blue

But it can be lonely to live all apart

And sometimes my stories are true

So when I was a mermaid, my daughter, my dear

And a great many other things too

I think that I wished very hard to be here

For the daughter I wanted was you;

Because sometimes my stories come true…
