{May 27, 2013}   (Fideal) Down By The Water ~ My Lyrics

thiswaternymph
Come with me oh come with me
i’m looking for a lover
waited many lifetimes for the touch of your embrace
oh come with me down below
down by the water, down by the water
come with me down below

Hear my voice through the night
hear my melancholy song
cast a spell upon you till your will becomes my own
listen hard and follow me
down by the water,down by the water
listen hard and follow me

Feel my mouth pressed to yours
press your warm lips to my cold lips
waited far too long to feel your breath mingle with mine
breathe on me i’ll steal your soul
down by the water, down by the water
breathe on me i’ll steal your soul

There you’ll stay you’ll stay with me
till I’ve had my fill of you
leave you all alone there with the water’s cold embrace
another lover walks the shore
down by the water, down by the water
another lover walks the shore
shore

It sounds very hauntingly seductive, I enjoyed reading it.



thank you!!! one day I shall learn how to post songs and attach my songs to my lyrics, sometimes the music adds something but it’s nice to know the lyrics stand on their own ๐Ÿ˜‰



Andy says:

Don’t know why, but Jeff Buckley came to mind. (not drowning wise-lyric wise)



I’ll take that ๐Ÿ˜‰ (and yes, when it comes to drowning, just say no!)



I grew up on South America. When I was a little kid the older people were always telling stories of a white woman who came out of the river when the moon was bright, and enticed young men who were never heard of again. As kids, we were afraid to go to the rivers at night, but as an adult, I think I may chance it! :). Good writing!



oh my! how scary yet cool! lol I read an old Scottish folk tale about an scary water faerie who would lure men to their deaths and couldn’t get it out of my head, and a song was born ๐Ÿ˜‰
just make sure, if you do chance it, once she gets you underneath the water she won’t let you go so bring a rope or something so you can save yourself ๐Ÿ˜› and thank you



Hehehe, I always bring my diving gear! After she falls asleep I will dive away! ๐Ÿ™‚
