"Mermaid" by Elysian Fields, the closing track off of their debut album, Bleed Your Cedar. I do not claim ownership of the song, album cover, or lyrics. Copyright goes to its intended owners. This video is merely to spread awareness of their beautiful work. Lyrics below.
Remember how you found me
Under a low bent half moon
I must have been singing for you
I'd never left the water
Though I once knew some flying fish
Thought I'd forget how to swim
I am your mermaid
I give to you freely
But soon as you see me I'm gone, gone
I am your mermaid
Tangled but blissful
Knock me a kissful of nectar, honey
The water is hot
And you hold my head
As sores of the day slip through the shore's threads
I'd never felt such rapture
A glimpse at the lighthouse
Undo myself from your hanging mouth
I am your mermaid
Tangled but blissful
Knock me a kissful of nectar, honey
I am your mermaid
I opened your mortal need
You planted your opal seed of love, love
I am your mermaid
I am your mermaid
I am your mermaid

@fyourcouchnigga Not all females have the same voice (there are actually many female tenors), and it really doesn't matter what your username is referencing. (sigh)

I love the melancholic sensuality of the lyrics, of her voice, the music...

@fyourcouchnigga If you don't like her voice (or women in general), then get the fuck off my video. There are obviously people who do appreciate the song.
