Luka Bloom Sunny Sailor Boy
On a day of days
I stood and gazed
Over the western sea
Startled and struck
Frightened to look
When a mermaid called to me
Ooh-wah Ooh-wah
Ooh-wah Ooh-wah
My sunny sailor boy
Like a man in a dream
For an age it seemed
I stood as still as a stone
While the mermaid sang
And her melody rang
Like a memory calling me home
Then the sea and the wind
And the shores did spin
Though my resistance was strong
All the stars in space
Filled the mermaid's face
She captured my will with her song
Somehow I spoke
The enchantment broke
I rubbed my eyes open wide
Like a dream she was gone
What remained was a song
Borne on the ebbing tide
Ooh-wah Ooh-wah
Ooh-wah Ooh-wah
My sunny sailor boy
