lyrics

I’m standing staring out to sea
The silver sand beneath my feet
Another lover lost to me for seeing
Who I truly am
Am I all that bad?

Forgive me my naivety
I thought that my ability
To render life from stone would be sufficient
Turns out I was wrong
Youth is all you want

But my words can charm the fishes from the sea
And my song can lure the sirens up to me
I can whip a zephyr up to fill your sails
Or an island on the humpback of a whale

And I can make a garden filled with light
Yeah, I can take a hater
And turn him into nature

Yeah, I can make an earthly paradise
It takes a life to learn it
You really have to earn it
I’d like to see you try

My sisters don’t resemble me
I lack Morgana’s villainy
I lack the self-restraint of Logistilla
I just want some fun
Doesn’t everyone

For what would a woman want, if she could choose?
Doesn’t matter, ‘cos whichever way she’ll lose
I could spend my power on eternal youth
I could squander it to cover up the truth

Or I could make a garden filled with light
Yeah, I could take a hater
And turn him into nature

Yeah, I could make an earthly paradise
It takes a life to learn it
You really have to earn it
I’d like to see you try

For what would a woman want, if she could choose?
Doesn’t matter, ‘cos whichever way she’ll lose
I could choose to lavish beauty on myself
I could choose to live and give the beauty out...
