There was a time when we sailed on together
|
Once had a dream that we shared on the way
|
There was a place where we used to seek shelter
|
I never knew the pain of the price I would pay
|
|
You led me on with a cloak and a dagger
|
And I didn't know you had made other plans
|
You had me believe we were meant for forever
|
I really thought my heart would be safe in your hands
|
|

|
My ship has passed you by
|
And though you promised me to show the way
|
You led me astray
|
You were my lorelei
|
What kind of fool was I
|
Cause I believed in every word you said
|
And now I wonder why
|
Lorelei
|
|
There was a time when we held one another
|
Bearing our souls in the light of the flame
|
Those were the days now I've lost my illusions
|
Sometimes I wake in the night and I call out your name
|
|
Lorelei
|
My ship has passed you by
|
And though you promised me to show the way
|
You led me astray
|
You were my lorelei
|
What kind of fool was I
|
Cause I believed in every word you said
|
And now I wonder why
|
Lorelei
|
|
Now there's a light that shines on the river
|
Blinding my eyes from so far away
|
Shot through the heart but now I know better
|
As hard as it is to resist the song that you play
|
|
