Song to the Siren (Tim Buckley) Songtext

von Dead Can Dance

On the floating
Shipless oceans
I did all my best to smile
To your singing eyes and fingers
Drew me loving to your arms
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 deramed about me
Were you here when I was full sail
But now my foolish boat is leaning
Broken love lost on your rocks
Will you sing
Touch me not
Touch me not
Come back tomorrow
Oh, my heart
Oh, my heart
Shies from the sorrow
But 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
