Down at paradise, she sat by the shore
The waves were dark, and tall
He jumped from the waves, into the sky
Only to land, in front of her eyes
She gasped and caught her breath and stared
He seemed quite young she thought it was best
just to leave him there
She walked home and climbed her stairs
Looked from the window and saw him there
She said
Why did you follow me
The sea it's miles from here
Go Back to your salt water
And stay there in the dark
He was not, what she had seen before
His skin was green, and his eyes were small
She said, I mean to cause you no pain
but you must return from where you came
I'll walk you to the shore
(chorus x2)
She told him to go, back where he came from
This was no, place, for him
He came from the ocean, not from land
That's why he must understand
Why she would say. .
Why did you follow me
The sea it's miles from here
Go Back to your salt water
And stay there in the dark
