Tatayana the Water Fairy
On a lovely coral reef, deep in the sea
Surrounded by water Lillies, dancing so free
There's a castle built of pearls and shells
It's where Tatayana the water fairy dwells
She is so beautiful with long golden hair
Hypnotic blue eyes that captivate with each stare
Little in size and stature with a glimmering tail
She rides the sea on the back of Moby the Whale
Both of them love to swim and explore
Deep in the sea on the silky ocean floor
Treasures can be found in the wrecks of sunken ships
Stirring her imagination to make up stories of their trips
Her father the King says she spends too much time exploring
Wishes she would settle down and find some prince so adoring
But Tatayana is very happy in her watery world of blue
No troubles, no worries, nothing to ever bother you
Her friend Moby is the best she has ever had
The hours they spend make her happy and glad
Without him she thought she just might die
Or even worse she might start to breakdown and cry
You see crying for water fairies was strictly taboo
For she would lose her powers, then what would she do
She'd become mortal and have to live on the land
She couldn't imagine having feet and walking on sand
No she wouldn't cry, for those pearls she didn't need
Yes, water fairies tears are what makes a pearls seed
She'd just continue on her very merry way
And forget about what her father might say
Sooner or later she'd meet a handsome prince she knew
But until that time she just wouldn't be blue
Up onto Moby's back she sat ever so high
The light shining through the water was her golden sky
Her father was calling her to come in
"Tatayana come in girl, enough of your whim"
But Tatayana ignored him, and she and Moby sailed on
Smiling as she sang softly a lovely water fairies song
