She was drowned in suicide faithless lover cast aside
|
This is how she came to be Lorelei of the sea
|
Hopes destroyed she wanted to find certain death peace of mind
|
Now you wonder who is she Lorelei of the sea
|
Many tales I've been told of sailors having died
|
after seeing a mermaid known as Lorelei
|
Faithless lover that is me and she siren of the sea
|
So next time that the seagulls fly
|
Don't you cry sweet Lorelei
|
Seagulls fly when mermaids cry
|
Those tears wont dry for Lorelei
|
The guilt is mine I was untrue the question is what am I to do
|
All I know is I got to try to find sweet Lorelei
|
Make amends for what's been done cause I believe that she's the one
|
Try to find sweet Lorelei
|
Seagulls fly when mermaids cry
|
Those tears wont dry for Lorelei
|
There she is I hear her cry
|
She's asking me if I will die
|
There ain't nothing I won't do for Lorelei
|
Seagulls fly when mermaids cry
|
Those tears wont dry for Lorelei
|
