Tim Buckley - Song to the Siren
Tim Buckley - Song to the Siren
Tim Buckley - Song to the Siren
Long afloat on shipless oceansI did all my best to smile‘Til your singing eyes and fingersDrew me loving to your isleAnd you sangSail to meSail to meLet me enfold youHere I amHere I amWaiting to hold you
Did I dream you dreamed about me?Were you here when i was full sailNow my foolish boat is leaningBroken lovelorn on your rocks,For you sing, “Touch me not, touch me not, come back tomorrow:O my heart, O my heart shies from the sorrow”
I am puzzled as the newborn childI am troubled at the tide:Should I stand amid the breakers?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”
Tim Buckley - Song to the Siren
Did I dream you dreamed about me?
