the mermaid lounge - moody penner & swain lyrics

tonight you called me from lafayette and you brought me back to life
until tonight my cup had not been filled and my hunger not been fed
(and) i’ve been spending my time working to find something to ease this pain
i never thought in a million years i’d find you instead

you told me about your sister june who passed away last year
and my thoughts went out to the two of mine, the loss of whom i could not bear
but it wasn’t about the dying, the losing, or the fear
it’s about those things we were looking for, and we never knew were there

oh sweet lafayette, i’ll be back someday
and we’ll go down to the mermaid lounge and we’ll dance the night away

you told me about your daughter in little rock and what it’s like alone
but you made me see that your loneliness is just another kind of love
and if we chose to love n0body, then we’d have n0body to phone
and no one to spend our lonely days and our evenings thinking of

oh sweet lafayette, i’ll be back someday
and we’ll go down to the mermaid lounge and we’ll dance the night away
oh sweet lafayette, i’ll be back someday
and we’ll go down to the mermaid lounge and we’ll dance the night away

and so we both agreed we’d try never to feel so alone
even when the memories are calling us, even all these miles apart
and this is how i left you, and it’s what i will recall
and i won’t be feeling lonely anytime soon with your words here in my heart
oh sweet lafayette, i’ll be back someday
and we’ll go down to the mermaid lounge and we’ll dance the night away
oh sweet lafayette, i’ll be back someday
and we’ll go down to the mermaid lounge and we’ll dance the night away
