Lorelei

There was a time

When we sailed on together

Once had a dream

That we shared on the way

There was a place

Where we used to seek shelter

I never knew

The pain of the price I would pay

You led me on

With a cloak and a dagger

And I didn't know

You had made other plans

You had me believe

We were meant for forever

I really thought

My heart would be safe in your hands

Lorelei

My ship has passed you by

And though you promised me to show the way

You led me astray

You were my Lorelei

What kind of fool was I?

'Cause I believed in every word you said

And now I wonder why

Lorelei

There was a time

When we held one another

Baring our souls

In the light of the flame

Those were the days

Now I've lost my illusions

Sometimes I wake in the night

And I call out your name

Lorelei

My ship has passed you by

And though you promised me to show the way

You led me astray

You were my Lorelei

What kind of fool was I?

'Cause I believed in every word you said

And now I wonder why

Lorelei

Now there's a light

That shines on the river

Blinding my eyes

From so far away

Shot through the heart

But now I know better

As hard as it is to resist

The song that you play

Lorelei

My ship has passed you by

And though you promised me to show the way

You led me astray

Oh, Lorelei

What kind of fool was I?

'Cause I believed in every word you said

And now I wonder why

Lorelei
