Deep Fantasy

I know a place beneath the sea,

a pristine place for you and me.

We’ll disappear without a trace,

beneath the sea, I know a place.



Beyond the reef, like in a dream

are coral castles quite extreme.

A fantasy world beyond belief,

like in a dream, beyond the reef.



Take my hand, to a world serene,

to Neptune’s world, where I am queen.

Beyond the waves that crash on sand,

to a world serene, take my hand.



Dive below and capture my love,

far from the bright starlight above.

A place for two I want you to know,

capture my love and dive below.



When all is done and all is said,

give up your world, take me instead.

Come with me, it has just begun,

when all is said and all is done.
