Tori Amos - Selkie lyrics

Selkie unzips her skin finally determined
Through a window in the dark
There he sit's all alone

I've been waiting on
The love of my life to find
He's been waiting on his Selkie to come back

He said
"I know these shores are not like yours but
Will you make your home in my arms?"

Selkie battled tide and wave
Just to gaze upon his face
Hiding behind rocks to learn
If he found a new love

Lorelei sings the song
For lovers who were torn apart
Then left brokenhearted
Lorelei hears the cry
Of lovers that the sea of fate had separated

Selkie puts her hand in his
He knows the gift she gives
There inside his cabinet
Folded safe her seal skin

I've been waiting on
The love of my life to find
He's been waiting on his Selkie to come back

He said
"I know these shores are not like yours but
Will you make your home in my arms?"
