The old men tell stories of Dawson Pier
And all the lovers who lost their lives here
I found her in the pool with auburn curly hair
And I flinched back, aching with cold despair
She lay face down in the rocky lake
Drowned like a fish, was this some mistake? 
And I flipped her over and saw those lifeless eyes
And those sad scarred wrists, they made me start to cry

Though the water took her, the truth was plain
The thing that killed her was her heart's pain
She could have been a mermaid, someone's mother or wife
How can one so beautiful take their own life? 
Why do I miss you, when we've never met before? 
How can I keep on living now that I wish I'd seen you more? 
Could I have saved you, or was this world to cruel? 
Why do I keep crying, am I just some loveless fool?
