Draw near, closer now Into my painted wings What man can resist When the Siren sings Let not your ears be deadened By the ocean's roar Just hear my sweet lament And I'll ask no more
Give up your will to me!
You've travelled far, my love And the sea's been cruel Come rest with awhile Why act like a fool For I will guide your ship To my welcome shore So give your soul to me When you hear the call
Upon this crimson rock Your body lying still And from your broken veins I will drink my fill Your love has given me Meaning to my song Within my empty heart Is where your blood belongs
