Down by the shore, in the soft morning light, A fisherman dreamed of a magical sight. Not just a fish, but a tale to be told— A mermaid with hair like the sun’s finest gold. He cast out his net, with a wish and a song, Hoping the waves would carry it along. “Dear ocean,” he whispered, “if you can, Bring me a mermaid, as fast as you can!” The seagulls laughed, and the dolphins swirled, As if they knew of the underwater world. The fisherman waited, his heart filled with glee, Dreaming of treasures beneath the blue sea. Suddenly, bubbles began to rise, And there she appeared, a sparkling surprise! With emerald scales and eyes so bright, She shimmered and glimmered, a wondrous sight. “Kind fisherman,” said the mermaid so sweet, “Why do you seek me, here where I meet The starry skies and the deep blue sea? What is the wish you have for me?” “I’ve heard the tales, I’ve read the lore, Of mermaids that dance near the ocean’s floor. Just once in my life, I wanted to see, A creature so lovely, as rare as thee.” The mermaid smiled and swam near the boat, Her voice like a song, each word seemed to float. “You’ve seen me now, so let it be known, The sea’s true magic is all your own.” With a wave of her tail, she vanished away, Back to the ocean where mermaids play. The fisherman smiled, his heart full of cheer, For he’d caught a dream that he’d treasure for years.

(Verse) Came into my life as a stranger... But as time goes by we became very close... Social medias are the reasons for the survival of our relationship... (Pre-chorus) Love ya hard ya (Chorus) My pretty lady from Beautiful Madang... You are my light in my nights... My shelter in every weather... Oh Dodo... Oh Dodo... You mean everything in my life.

[Verse 1] We had our moment, but you didn’t stay. You said I was avoidant, Hurtful in so many ways. Yeah, maybe you’re right— Something’s broken in me. Stuck in this thing called life, Blocked and can’t seem to break free. [Chorus] Can’t figure out what to do, Can’t figure out what to say. No matter who I love, They always walk away. Is it me, or is it them? Hard to believe I’ll be alone, But then again, I already am. [Verse 2] Babe don’t pack your things Don’t leave me behind You slam the door and yell that— I can’t do anything right Damn, that made me feel small for someone my size. [Chorus] Can’t figure out what to do, Can’t figure out what to say. No matter who I love, They always walk away. Is it me, or is it them? Hard to believe I’ll be alone, But then again, I already am. [Bridge] Maybe it’s me, Maybe it’s them These drinks got me all up in my head I don't know what to do I dont know what to say I know I won’t find the answers Drinking my life away [Final Chorus] Tell me what to do, Tell me what to say. Because No matter who I love, They always walk away. Is it me, or is it them? Hard to believe I’ll be alone— But then again, I already am, I already am, yeah already am.

[Instrumental]

Wolves asleep amidst the trees Bats all swaying in the breeze But one soul lies anxious, wide awake Fearing all manner of ghouls, hags and wraiths For your dolly polly sleep has flown Don't dare let her tremble alone For the Witcher Heartless cold Paid in coin of gold He comes, he'll go, leave naught behind But heartache and woe Deep, deep woe Birds are silent for the night Cows turned in as daylight dies But one soul lies anxious wide awake Fearing all manner of ghouls, hags and wraiths My dear dolly polly shut your eyes Lie still, lie silent utter no cries As the Witcher Brave and bold Paid in coin of gold He'll chop and slice you Gut and dice you Eat you up whole Eat you whole

[Verse 1] Down the old dirt road, where our stories unfold, Words of the past and the ones that we hold, Am and is, in the moments gone by, Are with me now, as we gaze at the sky. [Verse 2] Was the time you held my hand, walking through the pines, Were the dreams we shared, under starlit signs, Being here now, wrapped in memories, Been through the storms, yet standing with ease. [Chorus] Have the courage to face the dawn, Has the love that keeps us strong, Had our trials, but we always knew, Do or die, we’d make it through. [Verse 3] Does the wind still whisper our song? Did the flame of youth carry us along? Will the years be kind, as we age and gray? Would the past return if we asked it to stay? [Chorus] Shall we dance beneath the moon? Should we laugh and chase off the gloom? May the light guide our hearts anew, Might our dreams find their paths true. [Bridge] Must we question every turning of the tide? Can our spirits be forever tied? Could the answers lie in the love we see, In the words that bind, you and me?
