*Can you hear it ? Can you hear it ? The mermaids whispering secrets to the shells found in the red sea. They don't have flowers in their hair. All they do all day is laugh without a care with pink clam shells surrounding them everywhere. Seaweed wrapped around their necks looking prettier than diamonds and stone gems. Can you hear them from the distance over there upon the coral reefs. Sitting and singing in peace. If you hear them would you tell me please* **For they make a sound like no other, sweeter and softer than any lover. Among-st those timeless whispering waves, spirits so free, that we all desire to be. Unleashed from lives that hold them as slaves. Free, free, so, so, leave them be**
