Baez, Joan - No Mermaid Lyrics
We went down to the edge of the water
You were afraid to go in
You said there might be sharks out there in the ocean
And I said I'm only going for a swim
I wasn't always in view
You said we might get into red flag danger
And I am alone when I'm not with you
But I am no mermaid
I am no mermaid
And I am no fisherman's slave
I am no mermaid
I am no mermaid
I keep my head above the waves
We were swinging from the centre of the ceiling
You were afraid to give in
I said I know I'll always live for this feeling
And you closed your eyes you said never again
We were dancing in the middle of the desert
You said we'll burn under the hot sun
I said I'd rather be the colour of pleasure
Than watch like you from under the thumb
But I am no mermaid
I am no mermaid
And I am no fisherman's slave
I am no mermaid
I am no mermaid
I keep my head above the waves
We went down to the edge of the water
You were afraid to go in
You said there might be sharks out there in the ocean
And I said I'm only going for a swim
I was living around in a circle
I wasn't always in view
You said we might get into red flag danger
And I am alone when I'm not with you
But I am no mermaid
I am no mermaid
And I am no fisherman's slave
I am no mermaid
I am no mermaid
I keep my head above the wave

Baez, Joan No Mermaid Comments
Been looking for this for a long time
BEST lyrics!
Nothing against Joan Baez, she's a legend with a beautiful voice, but I prefer the Message in a Bottle version over this one.
I am alone when I'm not with you.
On this album there are my favourite tracks, and try joni mitchell with the 72 album 'Blue'
Both versions are beautiful...
Beautiful song - but there is a big difference to Sinead Lohan!
Different Artists. Same lyrics and message.
I enjoy both. Take what you will from this great song.
Love both versions.
Se la ve tan candida
Just fantastic!
