Selkie Love Song
The moon dances on the water And I come out of the sea For tonight you sing your sweetest song Calling out to me Selkie, selkie Selkie, hear me, do Selkie, selkie Know that I love you Many the times you have called me Singing of love so true And of how your life will be filled with joy If I stay with you Many the times I've resisted Fearing the others' fate Fearing the sea will be lost to me And love will turn to hate Selkie, selkie Selkie, hear me, do Selkie, selkie Know that I love you I did not mean to ensnare you Your heart was not my design But I could not bear to see you drown Tangled in fishing line One kiss was all that I gave you One breath returning your life I never thought you would look for me Seeking a selkie wife Selkie, selkie Selkie, hear me, do Selkie, selkie Know that I love you Over the years I have watched you Once youth, but now you're grown And your devotion has calmed my fears I'll let you make me your own But as I step out of the water What is it that I see A magic seal-skin that your faith has won That you a selkie can be Selkie, selkie Selkie, hear me, do Selkie, selkie Know that I love you |
