Siren's Song

Blood red are the midnight waters,

Moon burns like a flame,

Fog hangs like battle smoke as the streets fill up with rain,

For my head the mob is calling,

The Courthouse doors I stand,

I think I'd rather meet my maker, by then hangman's hand.

(Oh - oh - oh, oh - oh - oh),

I can't change what I've done,

(Oh - oh - oh, oh - oh - oh),

All I can say is beware of the Siren's Song.

Over seven seas we sailed,

Until I heard that sound,

A plaintive voice, such aching beauty,

I turned that ship around.

(Oh - oh - oh, oh - oh - oh),

Crew of a hundred strong,

(Oh - oh - oh, oh - oh - oh),

Lost my head and now they're gone,

(Oh - oh - oh, oh - oh - oh),

The nail in my coffin was heeding the Siren's Song.

[INSTRUMENTAL]

Blood red are the midnight waters,

Moon burns like a flame,

I'd give all my gold and silver,

Just to hear that voice again.

(Oh - oh - oh, oh - oh - oh),

I can't change what I've done,

(Oh - oh - oh, oh - oh - oh),

Beware of the Siren's Song,

(Oh - oh - oh, oh - oh - oh),

Yeah.

(Oh - oh - oh, oh - oh - oh),

All I can say is beware of the Siren's Song.

(Oh - oh - oh, oh - oh - oh)
