Siren Of The Sea ![]() Out of the cool and salty brine In gowns of water soft and fine Seductively she calls all men Down to the sea she dwells within No seaman can resist the lure Of her sweet call so soft and pure She welcomes them with open arms And while enchanted by her charms Down they go to watery graves Into her bed beneath the waves The bones of those she’s known before Lie strewn upon the ocean’s floor Within the waters deep and wide She beckons from the ebbing tide I can’t resist her haunting spell As I watch the waters rise and swell She walks out of the swirling ocean Gracefully with fluid motion Upon the sand she waits for me My lovely siren of the sea |
