Song of the Siren
Long afloat on shipless oceans
I did all my best to smile
By your swimming eyes and fingers
Bate me loving to your isle
And you sang
Sail to me
Sail to me
Let me enfold you
Here I am
Here I am
Waiting to hold you
Did I dream you dreamed about me?
Were you here when I was forsaken
Now my foolish boat is leaning
Bate lovelorn on your rocks,
For you sing
Touch me not
touch me not
come back tomorrow
O my heart
O my heart
shines from the sorrow
Well I'm as puzzled as the newborn child
I'm as riddle as the tide
Should I stand neath the breakers?
Should I lie with Death my bride?
And you sang
Swim to me
Swim to me
Let me enfold you
Here I am
Here I am
Waiting to hold you
I did all my best to smile
By your swimming eyes and fingers
Bate me loving to your isle
And you sang
Sail to me
Sail to me
Let me enfold you
Here I am
Here I am
Waiting to hold you
Did I dream you dreamed about me?
Were you here when I was forsaken
Now my foolish boat is leaning
Bate lovelorn on your rocks,
For you sing
Touch me not
touch me not
come back tomorrow
O my heart
O my heart
shines from the sorrow
Well I'm as puzzled as the newborn child
I'm as riddle as the tide
Should I stand neath the breakers?
Should I lie with Death my bride?
And you sang
Swim to me
Swim to me
Let me enfold you
Here I am
Here I am
Waiting to hold you
