Song of the Sirens
I still long, so long, those long nights at sea
With no souls around, but starlight and me
No land, no people, no sirens at night
Picturesque beauty, with unfiltered light
The Song of the Sirens, still call out my name
O'er seas, o'er shadows, o'er waves still untamed
They cradle my soul, then rock me to sleep
I pray as they roll, I'll rest in the deep
But, till that day comes, I'll wish from afar
The smell of the breeze, the wink of a star
So here on my knees, so lonely at night
I'll pray to the stars, with unfiltered sight
