Song of the Siren - Third Eye Blind

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 forsaken?

Now my foolish boat is leaning

Leave me lovelorn on the rocks

And you said:

'Touch me not, touch me not, come back tomorrow

O my heart, o my heart, shines from the sorrow'

Well I’m puzzled as a newborn child

I am riddled as the tide:

Should I stand 'neath your breakers?

Or should I lie in death my bride?

And you said, 'Swim to me, swim to me, let me enfold you:

Here I am, here I am, waiting to hold you'
