Mother send your daughters and recarve them in the sea
To pull the foolish mortals back into your chasmic womb
And under waning moonlight, all the seamen take their oars
They will scout their sirens, unaware of how they'll die, but
A sailor will learn
A sailor will learn
A sailor will learn
A sailor will learn
The sea has opened up my eyes
So with no heart, I will survive
I know she's watching
I've learned from last time
She's swimming, waiting
But she'll go hungry
A sailor will learn
A sailor will learn
A sailor will learn
A sailor will learn
When she first ensnared me, I was willing and in love
But slowly she betrayed me, just a fish and nothing more
If I find her lurking in the shadows of the cove
I'll take my dagger
And hide behind her
My heart is broken
But hers be bleeding
A sailor will learn
A sailor will learn
A sailor will learn
A sailor will learn
You're in love with your greed
You can't have what you seek
And your vessel will burn
And a sailor will learn
Will we ever get along?
Choking on the rock salt as the water breaks us down
I'll take my dagger
And hide behind her
My heart is broken
But hers be bleeding
A sailor will learn
A sailor will learn
A sailor will learn
A sailor will learn
And a sailor will learn
That to die is love
Oh, will we ever learn?
Oh, will we ever learn?
A sailor will learn
A sailor will learn (He will learn)
A sailor will learn (A sailor)
A sailor will learn (Will learn)
