Mermaid Song

I wanted you to save me
As I once saved you
But there are no saviors
When one is not two
My voice is all tangled
In the depth of that sea
Where my crumbling Atlantis
Mourns silently

Still

I can't regret this love like water
I can't regret the heart that led me to you
You gave me the sun
You gave me the air I'll relinquish
My mermaid's song undone

Her name was the prayer
I danced to be near you
It was your kindness
That was my ruin
The price had been paid
But love can't be bought
You named me your friend
And all was for naught

Still

I can't regret this love like water
I can't regret the heart that led me to you
You gave me the sun
You gave me the air I'll relinquish
My mermaid's song undone

What is love, if it can hate
I will not sacrifice your trust to my pain
I'm not a dagger to taint the past with blood
The moments with you were infinity had

No regrets
Love is not love if it regrets
I gave you my heart
You gave me the air I'll relinquish
And seafoam I'll become
Seafoam I'll become
My mermaid's song undone.
