[Intro]

Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh

Whoa-oh-oh-oh


[Verse 1]

Can’t swim, so I took a boat

To an island so remote

Only Johnny Depp has ever been to it before

Stayed there 'til the air was clear

I was bored and out of tears

Then I saw you washed up on the shore


[Verse 2]

I offered you my coat

Thank Goddess love can float

Crazy how that shipwreck meant my ship was coming in

We talked 'til the sun went down

Love on the Puget Sound

My treasure map was on your skin


[Chorus]

Beauty in the water

Angel on the beach

Ocean’s daughter

I thought love was out of reach

'Til I got her

Had I known it could come true

I would have wished in ’92

For a mermaid just like you

(Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh)

Just like you

(Whoa-oh-oh-oh)


[Verse 3]

Sharks green with envy

They wonder what you see in me

Funny but sometimes can’t help but wonder that as well

Now, life is a holiday

Making up for the years I paid

The way to this heavenly bay, it went through hell


[Chorus]

Beauty in the water

Angel on the beach

Ocean’s daughter

I thought love was out of reach

'Til I got her

Had I known it could come true

I would have wished in ’92

For a mermaid just like you

(Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh)

Just like you

(Whoa-oh-oh-oh)


[Bridge]

Rescued you by the banyan tree

All the girlfish in the sea

Couldn't hold a candle to you, they don’t have a handle on you

They don’t have a scandal on you, I love Ecco sandals on you

Saving me was B-I-G

All the boyfish in the sea

They all wish that they could be me


[Breakdown]

Can’t swim so I took a boat

To an island so remote

Only Johnny Depp has ever been to it before


[Chorus]

Beauty in the water

Angel on the beach

Ocean’s daughter

I thought love was out of reach

'Til I got her

Had I known it could come true

I would have wished in ’92

For a mermaid just like you

(Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh)

Just like you

(Whoa-oh-oh-oh)


[Outro]

Just like you (Rescued you by the banyan tree)

(Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh) (All the girlfish in the sea)

Just like you

(Whoa-oh-oh-oh)
