"Song To The Siren" lyrics
"Song To The Siren"
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 here when I was forced out?
Now my foolish boat is leaning
Broken lovelorn on your rocks
For you sing, "Touch me not
Touch me not; come back tomorrow
And oh, my heart - oh, my heart
Shies from the sorrow"
Well, 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
Here I am, here I am
Waiting to hold you"

Will you be my prince?
Will you lay down your armour
And be with me forever?
When you open me
All the power in me moves
How you want to see
All the depths of me real
When you open...
Gretta Ray - "Vienna" Slow down, you crazy child
You're so ambitious for a juvenile
But then if you're so smart
Tell me why are you still so afraid, hmm?
Where's the fire, what's the hurry about?
You'd better cool it off...
Rebecca Ferguson - "I Walk A Little Faster" Pretending that we'll meet
Each time I turn a corner
I walk a little faster
Pretending life is sweet
'Cause love's around the corner
I walk a little faster
Can't begin to see my future shine as yet...
Daniela Andrade - "Crazy" I remember when, I remember
I remember when I lost my mind
There was something so pleasant about that place
Even your emotions have an echo
Into so much space
And when you're out there
Without care...
