Daughter of the beautiful ocean
I feel your wave arrive on my shore
Bearing gifts of tangled emotion
And feelings that I cannot ignore


Daughter of the beautiful ocean
Knowing all when all is unknown
Shifting line between dream and illusion
Like a wave dissolving the stone
 

Do I fear you?
Do I willingly drown
If I love you
Will your wave hold me down?


Daughter of the beautiful ocean
Water so seductively cruel
You have come like a siren, a spiral, a storm
And I dived like a fool


Wash me, wet me
Tangle me in the foam
Wound me, heal me
Strip me back to the bone


La femme de la mer
Tu es la femme de la mer
