MARINA (CLOSING SONG)

Marina, Aqua Marina,
What are these strange enchantments that start whenever you're near?

Marina, Aqua Marina,
Why can't you whisper the words my heart is longing to hear?


Your magic to me, a beautiful mystery.
I'm certain to fall I know, because you enthrall me so.

Marina, Aqua Marina,
Why don't you say, that you'll always stay, close to my heart.

Not only was Stingray the first Supermarionation series to be made in color, it was also the first British TV series to be made in color.
