Lyrics[]
King Triton: (spoken)
Ariel? Ariel! You've been to the surface again, haven't you?
Ariel:
Please listen, father
Take note I'm very well
I meant to cause no trouble
King Triton: (spoken)
Now look here, Ariel!
Ariel:
The sun is shining
Over the ocean waves
It warms the land above us
The children laugh and play
I have dreams
Of life above
King Triton: (spoken)
What of the danger?
You could have fallen prey
The human world is savage
Now look, you must obey
Ariel's sisters:
Excuse us, father
However hard you try
She'll look beyond the ocean
We'll never know just why
She has dreams
Of life
Chorus:
Life above the sea kingdom
How could you ask for any more than what we have
Life within the sea kingdom
You can swim the seven seas
In happiness and peace
Oh life here in the sea kingdom
Ariel:
I can't contain (Ariel's sisters: A day of swimming)
My secret thoughts (A day of having fun)
Of life above (She'd rather be on dry land)
The deep blue sea (Up playing in the sun)
High above (We bow to father)
The ocean waves (He rules with majesty)
There is a life (The merfolk here are happy)
That calls me (We all enjoy the sea)
I have dreams (She has dreams)
Of life (Of life)
Chorus:
Life above the sea kingdom
King Triton:
How could you ask for any more than what we have?
Chorus:
Life within the sea kingdom
You can swim the seven seas
In happiness and peace
Life within the
Life within the
Life within the sea kingdom
