Queen of the Sea and King of the Desert

I am at the edge of the sea...of the sea...
I am falling apart as we opened the door
Follow me...follow me...come follow me…
Even in our departure, we are on the shore

I am the queen of the deep ocean
You expect me to walk with you at the beachside, but I cry
Feeling so much squalid emotion…
You reject me with your sorrowful goodbyes that left me dry

I am the king of the desert…
You make me feel like I'm drowning in shadows of the past
You made me feel so hurt…
You reject me with your sorrowful goodbyes and you cast away our joy that won't last

You don't follow me
In the shallow part of the sea
I am the queen of the ocean
No longer part of the commotion
You are not the water of the sea
You are the desert of reverie…
I believe in happiness and such
But, we miss each other so much

You don't follow the answers to your fears
You don't follow the river of my rapid tears
You are the remedy to the scars of the deep
You are farther than the stars can take and as far as we can leap

I am the queen of the deep ocean
You expect me to walk with you at the beachside, but I cry
Feeling so much squalid emotion…
You reject me with your sorrowful goodbyes that left me dry

I am the king of the desert…
You make me feel like I'm drowning in shadows of the past
You made me feel so hurt…
You reject me with your sorrowful goodbyes and you cast our joy that won't last

You don't follow me
In the shallow part of the sea
I am the queen of the ocean
No longer part of the commotion
You are not the water of the sea
You are the desert of reverie…
I believe in happiness and such
But, we miss each other so much

Tonight, we are in a trance
You won't stand a chance
You are the king of the desert and I am the queen of the sea
You will find out the way to the light
You will try to find me with your might

I am the queen of the deep ocean
You expect me to walk with you at the beachside, but I cry
Feeling so much squalid emotion…
You reject me with your sorrowful goodbyes that left me dry

I am the king of the desert…
You make me feel like I'm drowning in shadows of the past
You made me feel so hurt…
You reject me with your sorrowful goodbyes and you cast our joy that won't last

You don't follow me
In the shallow part of the sea
I am the queen of the ocean
No longer part of the commotion
You are not the water of the sea
You are the desert of reverie…
I believe in happiness and such
But, we miss each other so much

I am the shallow part of the sea,
But you can't come back to me
I am at the deepest end where the oceanic animals are…
Let the waves of our faith and doubt flow...
I am swimming with the sea creatures as far 
As far can go...as far can go...as far can go…

I am the queen of the deep ocean
You expect me to walk with you at the beachside, but I cry
Feeling so much squalid emotion…
You reject me with your sorrowful goodbyes that left me dry

I am the king of the desert…
You make me feel like I'm drowning in shadows of the past
You made me feel so hurt…
You reject me with your sorrowful goodbyes and you cast our joy that won't last

You don't follow me
In the shallow part of the sea
I am the queen of the ocean
No longer part of the commotion
You are not the water of the sea
You are the desert of reverie…
I believe in happiness and such
But, we miss each other so much

You take off your blue-neon shirt
In the darksome desert
I am the mermaid queen of the waters below
I am the sunset amongst the waves today, you know…
We will not be together
You don't make things a lot better

You don't follow me
In the shallow part of the sea
I am the queen of the ocean
No longer part of the commotion
You are not the water of the sea
You are the desert of reverie…
I believe in happiness and such
But, we miss each other so much

The summer has ended long ago,
But the spring will come
Tonight, your scars will be mended...so,
Let's pray for His Kingdom
And for our joy to last
Leave the past in the past,
Even if I am the queen of the sea
And you are the king of the desert

I change my drifting mind - won't you stay with me
In the sea of ecstasy...sea of ecstasy...sea of ecstasy…
Oh desert of reverie...will we ever be free from captivity?
King and queen were always and forever meant to be
The sunlight will turn the night into day
The ocean and desert is a tomorrow away
