Black Mermaid by Esthero

 i’m a black mermaid

 from the bottom of the sea

 i will teach you how to love me

 into greatness i will lead you

 ’cause i’m a black mermaid

 nothing rarer you will find

 i am here for you to love me

 i’ve been here for all o’ time

 and i will wait for you to see me and to understand

 that a woman can restore the soul of any broken man

 if you can look beyond the waves and just believe in me

 i am the lighthouse standing strong atop the rocks and sand

 ’cause i’m a black mermaid

 from the bottom of the sea

 i will teach you how to love me

 into greatness i will lead you

 and i’ve spent most of my life deep down inside myself

 i’ve dreamt about the possibility of someone else

 who could see the things i’ve seen and steal away with me

 into the darkness we could fade because we know ourselves

 and i’m his black mermaid

 from the bottom of the sea

 i will teach you how to love me

 into greatness i will lead you

 yeah i’m a black mermaid

 from the bottom of the sea

 i will teach you how to love me

 into greatness i will lead you

 and i’ve spent most of my life deep down inside myself

 i’ve dreamt about the possibility of someone else

 who could see the things i’ve seen and steal away with me

 into the darkness we could fade because we LOVE ourselves

 and i’m his black mermaid

 he thinks i’m beautiful

 yeah i’m his black mermaid

 he thinks i’m beautiful

 i am beautiful

(All the dark horses and all the good men,

won’t you come put me back together again?) repeatx4

 i am beautiful.
