[Melody:] Okay, get a grip, get a hang of this flipper It's like slipping two feet into one big huge slipper This way is left, which way is right Oh, now I'll be circling in circles all night
Oh, so this is forward. No problem.
I can't believe I can do this and more To swim in the sea like I walk on the shore Out of my shell, not closed up like a clam Look out, sea, this is me, here I am
For a moment all of me Is alive and at home in the sea I'm swirling and twirling, so graceful and grand Not stubbing my toes getting stuck in the sand
For a moment life is cool I'm a splash in the world's biggest pool This is more than my thoughts ever thought it would be For a moment, just a moment, lucky me
[Ariel:] If only for one moment I had shared with you all I know The sea wouldn't be a mystery Oh, why did you have to go?
[Melody:] Everything's newer, and brighter and bluer And truer to life than before Watch me soar
For a moment I can shine Got a grin and a fin, that works fine My fingers are wrinkly, and I really don't care If all of my curls have curled out of my hair
For a moment I can feel All the dreams I've been dreaming are real Wish my mother could hear it, the sea is my song For a moment, just a moment, I belong
[Ariel:] I will find you, my darling And the moment that I do I'll hold you close, my Melody And sing the song of the sea with you
[Ariel:] Sing the song of the sea with you [Melody:] For a moment, just a moment, I belong
