Song to the Siren Songtext
von The Czars
Song to the Siren Songtext
Long afloat, on shipless oceans
I did all my best to smile
′Til your singing eyes and fingers
Drew me loving to your aisle
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 you 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 the 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
Here I am
Here I am
Waiting to hold you
I did all my best to smile
′Til your singing eyes and fingers
Drew me loving to your aisle
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 you 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 the 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
Here I am
Here I am
Waiting to hold you
