Analysis of Diva of the Sea
Sarah Rayan 1982 (Kuwait City)
I used to swim alone, apparently, but now I'm almost home, I'm almost free, to fly on my own
and say goodbye forever to the diva of the sea, I used to be, the diva of the sea, goodbye forever
I've seen the ocean floor, apparently, but now I see the shore, and I'm ready, to give you so much more
and say goodbye forever to the diva of the sea, I used to be, the diva of the sea, goodbye forever
