Selkie Bride Lyrics - Honeycomb - Frank Black

Human form she had in Crescent City 

She showed me her pity lucky me 

In a storm so bad the worst of the autumn 

She came from the bottom of the sea 

Please won't you stay awhile 

Give me your coat 

Then we'll fall in love in my boat 

You'll be my Selkie Bride 

Please give me no denial 

A promise I give 

I'll forsake the life that I live 

Now you're by my side 

If you return again 

I'll be the saddest man 

My lips will burn your skin 

If you return again 

Please don't return again 

Please don't return again 

Please don't return again 

Human form she had in Crescent City 

She showed me her pity lucky me 

On that day so sad breezy and sunny 

She melted like honey in the sea
