She rose from the waves, with the dawn in her eyes Left the ocean behind, kissed the sea goodbye With the salt on her skin, and dreams in her heart She walked on the shore, taking her first step apart Oh, she's a child of the deep blue sea Now she's learning what it's like to be free In a world that's strange, in a place unknown A young girl finding a new home She marveled at the streets, the city lights so bright Learning how to dance, under the moonlight Her laughter echoed, in the concrete tides A mermaid on land, with nothing left to hide Oh, she's a child of the deep blue sea Now she's learning what it's like to be free In a world that's strange, in a place unknown A young girl finding a new home Sometimes she dreams of the waves calling her name But she knows in her heart, she'll never be the same For she's found a world where she belongs A melody of life, a brand new song With every sunrise, she feels more alive Her spirit soars high, no longer to dive She paints her own path, with each step she takes A girl from the sea, with a future to make Oh, she's a child of the deep blue sea Now she's learning what it's like to be free In a world that's strange, in a place unknown A young girl finding a new home So she walks on the land, with the sky in her eyes A living fairytale, under the wide open skies She’s a mermaid no more, but her heart sings the tune Of the ocean's embrace and the magic of the moon
