You told me tales of love and glory Same old sad songs, same old story The sirens sing no lullaby And no-one knows but Lorelei By castles out of fairytales Timbers shivered where once there sailed The lovesick men who caught her eye And no-one knew but Lorelei River, river have mercy Take me down to the sea For if I perish on these rocks My love no more I`ll see I`ve thought of you in far-off places I`ve puzzled over lipstick traces So help me God, I will not cry And then I think of Lorelei I travel far and wander wide No photograph of you beside me Ol` man River`s not so shy And he remembers Lorelei River, river have mercy Take me down to the sea For if I perish on these rocks My love no more I`ll see If I should float upon this stream And see you in my madman`s dream I`d sink into your troubled eyes And none would know `cept Lorelei River, river have mercy Take me down to the sea For if I perish on these rocks My love no more I`ll see But if my ship, which sails tomorrow Should crash against these rocks, My sorrows I will drown before I die It`s you I`ll see, not Lorelei
