The Last Song Of The Siren
Venus
The Last Song of the Siren [Intro] [Verse 1] I dreamt I dove deep down Until I touched the ground Wasn’t afraid I’d drown My mind occupied by the sound {Link] Of a voice I’d swear I’d heard before Calling me from the shore [Bridge] I’m cold And I feel I’m slipping under The waves They roll ahead like thunder [Chorus 1] And I can hear The absence of my beating heart And now I fear That this is how I will depart [Verse 2] I felt an icy hand Wrap around my wrist And then my chest expand With a life-giving kiss [Link 2] And her lips so soft and oh so red Whispered ’I might as well be dead’ [Bridge 2] For to save The life of a mortal Means in place That I sacrifice my soul [Chorus 2] And I can feel The slowing of my beating heart And as he heals I can feel myself depart [Bridge 3] I’m cold And I feel I’m slipping under The clouds They roll ahead with thunder [Chorus 3] Well when I saw The beauty in this sailor’s eyes Well I knew My existence I would sacrifice [Verse 3] My song will leave my lips One final time And my body will be claimed By the foaming brine [Outro] (sus2)
