Netta Perseus Songtext
von Lankum

The woman with eyes like an ocean
Has settled down on planet Earth
Now she is more softly spoken
And the children still tug at her skirt
The children still tug at her skirt


I liked her more in the evening
We all knew she slept on a cloud
All of her words had more meaning
When she would sing them aloud
When she would sing them aloud

Now that she stands here before me
Between the green Earth and the sky
She whispers that, she does adore me
But I dare not look into those eyes
I dare not look into those eyes


The woman with eyes like an ocean
Has settled down on planet Earth
Now she is more softly spoken
And the children still tug at her skirt
The children still tug at her skirt
