Songfacts®:

  • This song is about a man who goes out to sea for two weeks at a time. Beginning to feel more and more homesick by the day, he thinks he's starting to hallucinate. He then sees the most beautiful girl swimming in the sea, a mermaid. He falls in love, and looks forward to is next trip to sea, so he can see her again. One day when he can't take it anymore, he jumps into the sea to be with the girl. >>>
