Turn Loose The Mermaids

A kite above a graveyard grey
 At the end of the line, far, far away
 A child holding on to the magic of birth and awe
 
 ♪
 Oh, how beautiful it used to be
 Just you and me far beyond the sea
 The waters scarce in motion quivering still
 At the end of the river, the sundown beams
 All the relics of a life long lived
 Here, weary traveller, rest your wand
 Sleep the journey from your eyes
 ♪
 Good journey, love, time to go
 I checked your teeth and warmed your toes
 In the horizon, I see them coming for you
 The mermaid grace, the forever call
 Beauty in spyglass on an old man's porch
 The mermaids you turned loose brought back your tears
 At the end of the river, the sundown beams
 All the relics of a life long lived
 Here, weary traveler, rest your wand
 Sleep the journey from your eyes
 At the end of the river, the sundown beams
 All the relics of a life long lived
 Here, weary traveler, rest your wand
 Sleep the journey from your eyes

 At the end of the river, the sundown beams
 All the relics of a life long lived

 Sleep the journey from your eyes
 At the end of the river, the sundown beams (oh)
 All the relics of a life long lived
 Here, weary traveler, rest your wand
 Sleep the journey from your eyes
