Song to the Siren

Robert Plant

Long afloat on shipless oceans
I did all my best to smile
Till your singing eyes and fingers
Drew me loving to your isle

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 hare when I was fox?
Now my foolish boat is leaning
Broken lovelorn on your rocks
Touch me not, touch me not,
O come back tomorrow
O my heart, o my heart
shies from the sorrow

I am puzzled as the newborn baby
I am troubled at the tide,
Should I stand amid the breakers?
Should I lie with Death my bride?
Swim to me,
Swim to me,
Let me enfold you
Here I am,
Here I am,
Waiting to hold you
