LYRICS

Drenched from the sea
She came walking toward me
Half naked like a nymph 
From the forest and ash trees

She said sacrifice
And I will wash you twice
With edelweiss 
In the Baltic Sea

She is the daughter of the Ocean
Beauty as far as a stone could throw
Her love is always in slow motion
Whoa oh sorceress Calypso

She has playful magical power
That she harnessed from the white flower
It was now the witching hour
She claimed me as her own

She took me to her father’s palace
I was presented with a golden challis
And told not to spill a drop 
For seven years

She is the daughter of the Ocean
Beauty as far as a stone could throw
Her love is always in slow motion
Whoa oh sorceress Calypso

The town’s people stood at the portal
At such a union of nymph and mortal
As we danced around the circle
For the celebration

Seventh year came to an end
The pollen was meant for lesser men
As I drank the challis content
The shoe became untied

The seven-year-old spell
That ripped us apart to say farewell
No longer we could walk parallel
We had to endure and abide

She is the daughter of the Ocean
Beauty as far as a stone could throw 
I know
Her love is always in slow motion
Whoa oh sorceress Calypso
