The Mermaid and the Unicorn

Come with me to a fantasy land To a place where magic was born Where dreams of love can materialize, With the touch of a unicorns horn My story is about Alicia A mermaid who loved to pretend That one day she’d walk the earth With the aid of her unicorn friend While swimming one day in the shallows She asked if he’d give her a gift Will you please make me a woman And give my heart a lift Just touch my horn the unicorn said Then make a wish from your heart Magic will swirl and fill the air Then your fins will surely depart But there’s one thing that you need to know Before you get what you yearn You need to find the man of your dreams And your love he needs to return So come on Alicia the unicorn said Together we will search this land I know we will find him somewhere He will love you despite your brand So they searched the land for Alicia’s love And as they did they became closer together At night they talked, laughing out loud As they fended off the weather Alicia would climb on the unicorns back As across the land they’d ride Trying to find the love of her dreams Where ever he resides One day Alicia shouted we can’t do this anymore The man of my dreams won’t be found So take me back to the shore For Alicia knew she had fallen She’d fallen head over heals Her heart was saddened and broken How could this love be real But what Alicia didn’t know Was that the unicorn had fallen too The air around them began to swirl As he whispered I love you The unicorn became a handsome prince Standing tall with a white horse The mermaid became a beautiful lady Off in the sunset they rode of course So if like me you’re a dreamer Hear these words so true Fantasy land is all around you And the magic is waiting for you
