Selkie Lyrics - Unrepentant Geraldines - Tori Amos

Selkie unzips her skin, finally determined 

Through a window in the dark, there he sits all alone 

I've been waiting on the love of my life to find 

He's been waiting on his selkie to come back 

He said "I know these shores are not like yours 

But will you make your home in my arms?" 

Selkie battled tide and wave just to gaze upon his face 

Hiding behind rocks to learn if he found a new love 

Lorelei sings the song for lovers who were torn apart then left broken-hearted 

Lorelei hears the cry of lovers that the sea of fate had separated 

Selkie puts her hand in his, he knows the gift she gives 

There inside his cabinet, folded safe her seal skin 

I've been waiting on the love of my life to find 

He's been waiting on his selkie to come back
