Loaf Meat Sailor To A Siren Lyrics

Sailor To A Siren Lyrics

Long distance callin' in the middle of a rainy night

So much static, hardly knew your voice

An' you've been cryin', want me to love you like I did before

Girl when it comes to you, you know I've got no choice



You put a storm inside me, I wanna head for a safer harbor

They all tell me I should give you up, but no man coulda tried any harder

Feels like an odyssey that's never gonna reach an end

Every time I hear you callin' me, just wanna feel you in my arms again



 Chorus:

Like a sailor to a siren, like a moth to a flame

I know your love might be the death for me, but I run to you just the same

Like a sailor to a siren, nothing's gonna keep us apart

Crashin' over the wreckage of all the sailor's broken hearts



Musta met you when we were livin' in another time

Had nothin' but the jealous gods to point our way

When men were sailors and a woman was a rocky shore

Wailin' like a siren leadin' him astray



I got another woman and I know you got another man

They all tell me I should give you up, but I don't think that any mortal can

Feels like an odyssey that's never gonna reach an end

Every time I hear you callin' to me, just wanna feel you in my arms again



(chorus)



Gonna abandon ship, steal you from the cliff

Take you to a place where the gods can't find us no more

Let the sailors listen to the sirens if they dare

Gonna be dancin' on the water, drownin' in your yellow hair



(Solo)



(chorus repeats out)
