Watching from a rowboat,
Fighting to stay afloat.
I have found the perfect beauty,
And although she will never love me,
My feelings shall never fade.
I will always love this mermaid.
I know not what is right or wrong,
Only that my journey was long.
But with every stroke of the oars,
I sought out the one I adore.
I see now your smile so bright,
And I know the journey was worth the fight.
