Lyrics

Lorelei

Sailing clear a conscience across the sea,
Nothing but our solitude and me.
The calmness of our lives reflected in your eyes,
The moon a witness to my loyalty.

Yet beneath these waves, I’m drowning with my soul.
The passion craved can’t be lost or won’t grow old.

Oh Lorelei, I hear you calling me
On to the rocks, on to my destiny.

Faithful thoughts disappear when I heard her song.
Its melody a trance-like path to wrong.
Fidelity falls overboard, lust is now the lord.
Sail away from my paragon.

Yet beneath these waves …

Oh Lorelei, I hear you calling me
On to the rocks, on to my destiny.
Oh Lorelei, I see you beckoning
And you know I’ll never turn away.

To turn away.
Oh Lorelei.
