A Sea of Troubles

Queen of the sea,
you’re 30,000 leagues away from me.
No pressure,
I only wish I could be down there with you.
What do you treasure?
Could it be above the sea?
I wish the pressure below the waves was less threatening.
Could you come up for air and come home with me?
That would be swell...
Mistress of the deep
Tell me, what secrets do you keep?
Be honest, just promise, do you intend to keep me because I could treat you sweetly.
Oh, I'm all alone.
I'll wait for you to come home.
Oo, I'm all alone,
and I'll wait for you...
What do you treasure?
Could it be above the sea?
I wish the pressure below the waves was less threatening.
These stranger tides are difficult
and their ebb and flow isn’t typical.
Oh, it's hard to chart a course to where we could meet.
I think you have such a lovely voice,
and to give it up would be an awful choice
Today I saw the most romantic thing.
The sea returns to kiss the land
even though it’s dragged away.

Lavender Town

Watch out!
You’re headed straight for Lavender Town.
I’ve heard there’s rumours that there’s ghosts around!
Well, aren’t you afraid?
(Don't go chasing ghosts...)
Your heart's racing
and it keeps outpacing us
with no clear indication that we'll ever catch up...
What would mother say?
What if she saw you acting this way?
She’d say:
“Don’t go chasing ghosts they’re incorporeal!”
I know you’re brave but lets face the facts,
whats dead is dead, its not coming back.
Oh, don’t look back…
maybe i was wrong…
It’s too late… I don’t think we’re going home.
I guess I like the company,
that haunting gaze is ghastly!
Yea, we could use the company.
That crooked smile reads the end of you and me.
Don’t go back to (Lavender Town...)
Stay away from (Lavender Town...)
I cant save you from (Lavender Town...)
It’s too late for you…

Sunshine,
I told the world that someday you'd be mine.
Just don't forget that when you're so far away,
I'm right here.
Love of mine,
I wonder if I'll ever see that smile
just one more time...
It's been so long,
the warmth is here but your body's gone,
and you cant possibly comprehend how deep I feel this
with such slow advances and surface glances...
I made a promise,
an equal exchange.
Traded in pieces of me to see you again.
But did something go wrong?
I haven’t seen you at all and yet now someones after what’s theirs and
I’m scared…
I’m scared.
Help me out...
Tell me what spell might mend this.
And if you’re too afraid, then
just spell it out so I can end this curse.
Is it you I should miss?
Should I have gone and done this?
I only wish for some answers.
I live in fear of necromancers.
I cant forget
that smile when we first met.
I cant forget,
and if I did, what would I have left?
I read a promise,
but I was missing a page.
Sold all I had playing with fate.
Guess I deserve it.
Can't argue with ancient text.
I read a promise that sealed our fate.
Sunshine,
I told the world that some day you’d be mine…

The Fool

Reckless lover,
will you ever learn
Just because you care won't make her return...
But, patiently I’ll wait.
Idle as i count the days.
Withering away in the basement
hoping I can see your face.
I've been thinking 'bout you lately.
Wish that I could call you baby.
Sometimes I think you hate me...
I guess I care a bit too much
Someone save me from this nightmare,
never thought that I’d be stuck here!
I’m a selfish fool who cares too much.
A beast who’ll never feel your touch again.
I can sense
something’s amiss.
Could it be I’m dreaming?
Swear I hear them screaming...
and they’re screaming for answers,
screaming for blood.
Where could she be?
oh i don’t know…
but it seems to me
that theres no room for me here…
Grab your torches, storm the doors,
Please send help!
I have done enough here...
Save me from myself.
Someone save me from this nightmare,
never thought that I’d be stuck here!
I’m a selfish fool who cares too much.
A beast who’ll never feel your touch again!
I’m sleeping in the basement,
just to stay cool.
There’s a fire in the attic,
I wanna burn with you.
I’m sleeping in the basement
just to stay cool.
You’re the fire in the attic.
I wanna burn with you.
oh I wanna burn with…
I’m sleeping in the basement...
