Wild Uncharted Waters
The live-action movie adaptation gives Eric a brand new solo number where he's haunted by Ariel's voice is overcome with longing for her to find him again. This song follows in the footsteps from the stage musical's "Her Voice", which in turn was originally conceptualized for the original 1989 movie. It certainly uses similar imagery of longing, but focuses more on Eric's sense of loss, and has him restless instead of melancholy.
All I ever wanted
Was the open sea and sky
Freedom from the life I always knew
Now all I am haunted
As days and hours roll by
All I ever think about is you
There you are, over me
Taking me with your song to
Wild uncharted waters
Miles beyond the sea
I was darkness bound
I had almost drowned
'Til you came around
And you found me
Now I am on the shoreline
But I'm still lost at sea
In these wild uncharted waters
Come find me again
All I do is wonder
Who you are and where you'll be
In my mind your melody goes on
Stronger than the undertow
The night you rescued me
Silhouetted by the rising dawn
Whoa
Over you
I cannot
Get over you
In wild uncharted waters
Beyond where man can see
When your eyes outshine
The horizon line
And you're finally real
Here beside me
Now I'm right here on the shoreline
I'm right where you left me
And your voice is like
A siren that guides me
Wild uncharted waters
Alone, just you me
And I hope you're there
In the open air
There's no map or compass
To guide me, no
Time may change the shoreline
But time will not change me
If it takes my life
I will finally find you again
In uncharted waters
Come find me again
