[length: 04:49]
[00:15.35]When the last course has been consumed
[00:20.77]They withdraw to the drawing room
[00:27.17]Where the Schubert she plays with style
[00:33.44]Keeps her friends happy for the while
[00:38.97]But the memories are a burden,
[00:47.07]So she draws back both the curtains
[00:54.28]Stepping out into the night
[01:15.13]As the glow from the house recedes
[01:21.43]And their voices blend with the breeze
[01:26.88]She is free to be who she will
[01:32.36]Free to skip barefoot down the hill
[01:39.52]Maybe she is Neptune’s daughter
[01:47.77]For she’s drawn towards the water
[01:54.92]Stepping out into the night
[02:31.06]The water cold against her skin
[02:37.30]Conceals a multitude of sins
[02:42.87]And laughing like a little girl
[02:49.23]She enters an enchanted world
[02:55.56]Where seaweed girls with silver tails
[03:00.96]Play games upon the backs of whales
[03:07.31]They want her to come home with them
[03:13.79]They grab her legs and drag her
[03:18.23]Down again, down again
[03:20.92]Into the sea he strides
[03:24.57]And takes her in his arms
[03:28.22]And he carries her back to shore
