Down to the Sea

"Down to the Sea" is the first song in the film The Little Mermaid II: Return to the Sea. The song is sung by mainly Ariel and Sebastian, but parts are also sung by Prince Eric, Grimsby, and both humans and merpeople.
The song mainly serves to explain that Ariel is at long last returning to the sea, with her husband and a few subjects, so that both humans and merpeople can celebrate the christening of Ariel and Eric's newborn daughter Melody, the first child ever born of land and sea. At the same time, Ariel is expressing how much she loves her daughter, and that she hopes that Melody will share her love of the sea.
==Lyrics==
Ariel:
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah (x2)
You are my world, my darling
What a wonderful world I see
You are the song I'm singing
You're my beautiful Melody
Eric:
Darling, we better be going
Ariel:
Look at her, isn't she glowing?
Eric:
She looks divine, and you look exquisite
But look at the time
Ariel:
Couldn't be, is it?
Grimsby:
The crew is awaiting your orders
Captain:
We're sailing away from our borders
Sailor 1:
Steady, boy, steady
Sailor 2:
Ahoy there, they're coming!
Grimsby:
Trumpeters ready, drummers start drumming
Ariel:
Down to the sea we go
Down to a world I know
There's never been, not ever before
A child born of sea and shore
Human chorus:
Down to the sea we go
Back to the world we know
A journey to bless the princess to be
Under the sun and under the sea
Fish and other sea creatures:
Ariel's coming...
Sebastian:
What's all the big commotion
That's spreading through the ocean?
From sea to shining sea
There is no hesitating
Today we're celebrating
Ariel's Melody
Today when Triton's daughter
Comes back into the water
We're gonna have a spree
The boat is nearer now
I think I hear her now
Ariel's Melody
Fish chorus:
La la la la de da da
La la la la de da da
La la la la de de
Bass snail:
Oh... yeah~
Fish chorus:
La la de da da
La la de da da
La la la la de de
Merpeople chorus:
Up from the sea we rise
Up to the world of skies
There's never been, not ever before
A child born of sea and shore
Up from the sea we rise
Up to the world of skies
Forever to be together as one
Under the sea and under the sun
Ariel:
This is your world, my darling
One world, the land and sea
My hope for you for always
Is that your heart will hold part of me
Human chorus:
Down to the sea we go
Merpeople chorus:
Up from the sea...
Human chorus:
Back to the world we know
Everyone:
Together we come forever to be
Under one sun, the land and the sea
==Goofs==
*When the merpeople and the sea creatures surface to see Ariel and Eric presenting their baby daughter, the humans are not seen on their ship.
*Overhead, only the ship's crew are with Ariel and Eric, and as the view widens, the crowd of merpeople and sea creatures appear simply copied-and-pasted.
