Lyrics

Turn Loose The Mermaids (cover) - Nightwish

A kite above a graveyard grey

At the end of the line, far, far away

A child holding on to the magic of birth and awe


Oh, how beautiful it used to be

Just you and me far beyond the sea

The waters scarce in motion quivering still


At the end of the river, the sundown beams

All the relics of a life long lived

Here, weary traveller, rest your wand

Sleep the journey from your eyes


Good journey, love, time to go

I checked your teeth and warmed your toes

In the horizon, I see them coming for you


The mermaid grace, the forever call

Beauty in spyglass on an old man's porch

The mermaids you turned loose brought back your Tears


At the end of the river, the sundown beams

All the relics of a life long lived

Here, weary traveler, rest your wand

Sleep the journey from your eyes


At the end of the river, the sundown beams

All the relics of a life long lived

Here, weary traveler, rest your wand

Sleep the journey from your eyes


At the end of the river, the sundown beams

All the relics of a life long lived

Here, weary traveler, rest your wand

Sleep the journey from your eyes


At the end of the river, the sundown beams (oh)

All the relics of a life long lived

Here, weary traveler, rest your wand

Sleep the journey from your eyes
