[Verse 1]
Ancient unknown mammals
On a stormy sea
Like Buddha in the water
A velvet energy
As the night takes over
The spirits of the deep
Marvel at his majesty
The whale is in his sleep

[Chorus]
La mer
You're shimmering through
La mer
Magnificent blue

[Verse 2]
Shimmering through the water
In search of sanctuary
Currents travel faster
In alien territory
Dancing in the distance
In a puff of spray
In a single moment
The dolphin glides away
[Chorus]
La mer
You're shimmering through
La mer
Magnificent blue
La mer
You're shimmering through
La mer
Magnificent blue
La mer
