Sirena - Calexico

Along the coast shrouded by fog

A voice hovers so sweet and soft

The lure of lust no one can deny

A pile of bones hidden from sight

To save this sad, lonesome cry

Sorrow fills the oceans wide

Calling you close, promising love

Letting passion navigate you

Into the arms of sirena

Into the eyes of sirena

Into the heart of sirena

Dancing like ghosts, haunting the shore

The old ones warn, stay away

Her love is sweet, but sorrow too great

Dreams of leaving her curse for good

Rise from the sea as flesh and blood

Still the wind carries her voice

Fills all thoughts, sways your choice

Drawn the fear, capsize the heart

Till all passion navigates you

Into the arms of sirena

Into the eyes of sirena

Into the heart of sirena

Dancing like ghosts over the waves

Safe in the harber of her embrace

Bebe mi vino de amor

Besos de kerosina

Volvierdo el mar en infierno!

To save this sad, tragic soul

Sorrow’s worse than the tide’s pull

Sinking deeper, gasping for love

Till desire navigates you

Into the arms of sirena

Into the eyes of sirena

Into the heart of sirena

Dancing with ghosts under the waves

And into the arms of sirena

Into the eyes of sirena

Into the heart of sirena

Caught in the rip tide, smashed on the reef

Joining the mass of bones underneath
