Long floating on shipless oceans
I did my best to smile
'Til your shining eyes and fingers
Drew me loving into 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 flotsam?
Now my foolish boat is leaning
Broken lovelorn on your rocks
For you sing, 'Touch me not, touch me not, come back tomorrow'
O my heart, O my heart shies from sorrow.

Well, I'm as puzzled as a newborn child
I'm riddled as the tide
Should I stand amid the breakers?
Or 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.'


"Song to the Siren"
-- This Mortal Coil
(Radio France Black Sessions, 1995)
