Click to play

This is a magical story
Of a princess by the sea
Who waited on the shore

LOTTIE & ERMENGARDE
As long as we care to hear it,
There is plenty more

Between each verse, additional SCHOOLGIRLS in their nightgowns crowd onto the bed, window seat, et cetera, to hear the story. By the end of the song all of the girls are present.

LOTTIE & ERMENGARDE
This is a magical story
Of a princess by the sea
Who waited on the shore

SARA
And watched the mermaids play
And smiled at a Merman prince
And then was swept away

LOTTIE, ERMENGARDE & SCHOOLGIRLS
As long as you care to hear it,
The story has more to say

This is a magical story
Of a princess by the sea
Who waited on the shore
And watched the mermaids play
And smiled at a Merman prince
And then was swept away

SARA
She rode upon a giant wave
And nearly met a watery grave
Rescued by the Mer-prince true
And long as you care to hear it,
I'll tell more to you
