The Selkie sings a lonely song
out past the beach the whole night long
beneath the waves she does belong
the moonlights call is far too strong
she'll dance beneath the swells.
she'll rise again and shed her form
a brown eyed beauty she's reborn
on two pale legs she'll dare the storm
to visit humans soft and warm
she'll dance within their dreams.
with hair so silky, soft as fur
a rocking motion slow and pure
riding the waves of high pleasure
and headed straight for sweet rapture
she'll dance in his embrace.
rising early her heart alight
time to leave, can't be polite
blue sky calls out an end to night
run down the sand dark cloak in sight
she'll dance within her skin.
she'll race the dawn to waters edge
stand out upon a rocky ledge
among the high-grown grassy sedge
back to the sea her heart she'll pledge
she'll dance falling through sky.
returning to her one true home
an endless blue playground to roam
to swim with fish beneath the dome
of sky and wave and ocean foam
she'll dance in greatest joy.
and if she's feeling down again
she'll walk about the world of men
and spend the night in human den
and if she's very careful then
she'll dance back to the surf.
