[Verse 1]
There goes my heart into the water
And today I, I'ma try harder
To try to find, find you
And if I do, I do
Tryin' to [?] her in my heart to summer

[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, my love is quiet a show
And I wanna show you
But I know you don't see me
I gotta let you know, I gotta let you know
But I know that you don't hear me

[Chorus]
Mermaid, mermaid
I'm waiting by the riverbank, riverbank
By the surface, surface
I'ma just sit and wait, sit and wait
For you

[Verse 2]
I [?], but time goes by, yeah
I ask if they'd seen you, but there was no sign
I'm tryin' to find you, find you
And if I do, I do
That'll be worth it, that'll be worth the time
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, my love is quiet a show
And I wanna show you
But I know you don't see me
I gotta let you know, I gotta let you know
But I know that you don't hear me

[Chorus]
Mermaid, mermaid
I'm waiting by the riverbank, riverbank
By the surface, surface
I'ma just sit and wait, sit and wait for you
Mermaid, I'm waiting by the riverbank, riverbank
By the surface, surface
I'ma just sit and wait, sit and wait for you

[Verse 3]
Sitting here forever with nothing but a picture
(Where are you, baby, where are you?)
Thousand things I don't remember, but it's hard to forget ya'
(Can't find you, baby, can't find you)
If I could swim I would dive in and you would be all mine
For you I'll sink, for you I'm drowning
Gotta see you just one time

[Outro]
Mermaid, mermaid
I'm waiting by the riverbank, riverbank
