Merrily we sailed along
|
Though the waves were plenty strong
|
Down the twisting river Rhine
|
Following a song...
|
|
Legend's faded storyline
|
Tried to warn us all
|
Oh, they called her "Loreley"
|
Careful or you'll fall...
|
|
Oh, the stories we were told
|
Quite a vision to behold
|
Mysteries of the seas in her eyes of gold...
|
Laying on the silver stone, such a lonely sight
|
Barnacles become a throne, my poor Loreley...
|
|
And the winds would cry, and many men would die
|
And all the waves would bow down to the Loreley...
|
And the winds would cry, and many men would die
|
And all the waves would bow down to the Loreley...
|
|
You would not believe your eyes, how a voice could hypnotize
|
Promises are only lies from Loreley
|
In a shade of mossy green, seashell in her hand
|
She was born the river queen, ne'er to grace the land...
|
|
And the winds would cry, and many men would die
|
And all the waves would bow down to the Loreley...
|
And the winds would cry, and many men would die
|
And all the waves would bow down to the Loreley...
|
|
Oh, the song of Loreley
|
Charms the moon right from the sky...
|
She will get inside your mind, loveley Loreley...
|
When she cries "Be with me until the end of time"
|
You know you will ever be with your Loreley...
|
|
And the winds would cry, and many men would die
|
And all the waves would bow down to the Loreley...'
|
And the winds would cry, and many men would die
|
And all the waves would bow down to the Loreley...
|
And the winds would cry, and many men would die
|
And all the waves would bow down to the Loreley...
|
And the winds would cry, and many men would die
|
And all the waves would bow down to the Loreley...
