Song to the Siren

Drifting on the shipless ocean
I did all my best to smile
Til your singing eyes and fingers
Drew 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 hare when I was fox?
Now my foolish boat is leaning
Broken, lovelorn on your rocks

For you sing "Touch me not
Touch me not, come back tomorrow
Oh my heart, oh my heart
Shies from the sorrow"

I'm as puzzled as a newborn child
I'm as riddled as the tide
Should I stand amid the breakers
Or should I lie with death my bride?

Hear me sing, "Swim to me
Swim to me, let me enfold you
Oh my heart, oh my heart
Is waiting to hold you"

Long afloat on shipless oceans
I did all my best to smile
Til your singing eyes and fingers
Drew 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 hare when I was fox?
Now my foolish boat is leaning
Broken, lovelorn on your rocks

For you sing, "Touch me not
Touch me not, come back tomorrow
Oh my heart, oh my heart
Shies from the sorrow"

I am puzzled as the oyster
I am troubled as the tide
Should I stand amid your breakers
Or should I lie with death my bride?

Hear me sing, "Swim to me
Swim to me, let me enfold you
Here I am, here I am
Waiting to hold you"
