Song to the Siren

Long afloat on shipless oceans

I did all my best to smile

Till your singing eyes and fingers

Drew me loving to your isle

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

Touch me not, touch me not,

O come back tomorrow

O my heart, o my heart

shies from the sorrow

I am puzzled as the newborn baby

I am troubled at the tide,

Should I stand amid the breakers?

Should I lie with Death my bride?

Swim to me,

Swim to me,

Let me enfold you

Here I am,

Here I am,

Waiting to hold you
