Matthew, bring in your fishing nets
Have you caught yourself a woman
Caught yourself a woman yet
Sometimes you call me Melusine
After the Lady of the Fountain in whose lake you took a drink
And boy I know
I know that you burn for your water spirit
Now that I know
I know the lengths that you’d go
To chase the roughest tide that’s right behind me
Yes, I know
I know the lengths that you’d go
To bring the roughest tide in
Smooth like Dolphin
Smooth like Dolphin
I sought shelter in our child’s room
She and me against the world
Safe in our cocoon
You raced a giant roller-skate
And said "the three of us must leave this place
Song lines will guide our way"
And boy I know
I know that you burn for your water spirit
Now that I know
I know the lengths that you’d go
To bring the roughest tide that’s right behind me
Yes I know
I know the lengths that you’d go
To bring the roughest tide in
Smooth like dolphin
Smooth like dolphin
Matthew, bring in your fishing nets
I have been marked by your gospel
This daughter of a preacher man
'Cause boy I feel
I feel that you burn for your water spirit
'Cause boy I feel
I feel that you burn for your watergirl
Now that I know
I know the lengths that you’d go
To bring the tide that’s racing right behind me
Yes I know
I know the lengths that you’d go
To bring the roughest tide in
Smooth like dolphin
Smooth like dolphin
