The Siren and the Song
When I was a younger man
Had younger dreams, had younger plans
Never did I think
I would set foot upon this shore
It comes to me infrequently
Just how different life could be
Faced with the deep blue sea
It's the devil for me I'm sure
She was the siren
Oh, she was the song
She was everything
For which I longed
The time we spent together
I shall never forget
She crawled into my mind
And she lives there yet
Oh, lonely nights are long
Since my baby's gone
Days left to longing
Nights left to sin
Bodies sun drenched by the light
That her blinds let in
Her smile was the sunshine
Her body open sea
Glimpses in the rain-soaked streets
Glaring back at me
When I was a younger man
Had younger dreams, had younger plans
Never did I think
I would set foot upon this shore
It comes to me infrequently
Just how different life could be
Faced with the deep blue sea
It's the devil for me I'm sure
Oh, lonely nights are long
Since my baby's gone
Had younger dreams, had younger plans
Never did I think
I would set foot upon this shore
It comes to me infrequently
Just how different life could be
Faced with the deep blue sea
It's the devil for me I'm sure
She was the siren
Oh, she was the song
She was everything
For which I longed
The time we spent together
I shall never forget
She crawled into my mind
And she lives there yet
Oh, lonely nights are long
Since my baby's gone
Days left to longing
Nights left to sin
Bodies sun drenched by the light
That her blinds let in
Her smile was the sunshine
Her body open sea
Glimpses in the rain-soaked streets
Glaring back at me
When I was a younger man
Had younger dreams, had younger plans
Never did I think
I would set foot upon this shore
It comes to me infrequently
Just how different life could be
Faced with the deep blue sea
It's the devil for me I'm sure
Oh, lonely nights are long
Since my baby's gone
