I was shocked when I saw him
I guess he was looking for me
So I crawled out of the deep, dark sea
I came up on the sand
And asked him who he be

And he said he was a sailor
And he sat and opened up to me
His ship had sank, and a mermaid had saved him
And he said she looked like me
Oh, yeah, she looked like me

[Chorus]
Did you say you saw a mermaid
And she looks a little like me?
I will always be your mermaid
I will always be
Your mer-baby

All the gray days I dreamed about you
I would call upon the sleeping waves
I can't live one more day without you
I swore I'd find a way
To bring you back with me

So I asked my father, Titan
To break down and open up the sea
I just hope that you aren't frightened
It's difficult, you see
To bring you back with me

So come on, say you love a mermaid
And she looks a little like me
I will always be your mermaid
We'll live in the sea
And make mer-babies
'Cause you know I love an Earth-man
And he looks a little like you
I want you to be my merman
We'll live in the sea
And make mer-babies

Atlantic
Pacific
The Indian Ocean
Mediterranean Sea
Baltic
Dead Sea
The Black and the Red Sea
The Agean and Arabian Gulf
The Arctic
Antarctic
China Sea
Are all coming into me

(The spectacular part)
You're not a man anymore
You're one with the sea

[Chorus x 2]

'Cause you know I loved an Earth-man
And he looked a little like you
Baby, now you are my merman
And we live in the sea
And make mer-babies

(The spectacular part)
You are not a man anymore
You're one with the sea
